Wasn't there a book by that name?

Rating: 4/10 (15 June 2002)

Considering that the majority of this country's population is illiterate and would choose to see the movie rather than read the book, there will probably be many people who enjoy this film. Unfortunately for the literate minority, this film took a wonderful book and destroyed it. The plot of the novel was hacked to pieces and it is painful to watch for any fans of Ludlum's book. Everyone else seems to think the movie is "lots of fun," so I urge you to see it before reading the book, but if you want a good plot turn to the book and please don't rate this film until you've done so and can give us an informed opinion.
