Pretty entertaining for the genre

Rating: Null/10 (1 July 2002)

Let me first say this. This movie will not be considered for any Academy Awards, and won't end up on many people's top ten list. However, for a action/adventure spy flick, it really is pretty good.

I will admit that I am not big into spy movies, and most of my exposure to them consists of Bond and Mission Impossible. If you like Bond and Mission Impossible, you should definitely like this movie. The movie tended to only push the limits of believability a little bit, which is much more than I can say for most movies in this genre.
I should also say that I haven't read this particular book. I read two of Ludlum's books, and discovered they both had the same plot. Perhaps the folks making the movie decided to alter the plot so that it wouldn't be exactly like all the other Ludlum books out there?
