Big Disappointment

Rating: 2/10 (27 December 2006)

I was eager to see this even though it was under 60% on Rotten Tomatoes. I guess I will go back to not seeing something in theaters if it can get a fresh rating.
The movie is about nothing. The story doesn't make you care about the main character, his marriage, or his lost love. The "Birth of the CIA" story has nothing to say, not about the creation of the CIA, the difficult role they play, and the decisions they make. With three or four possible tales to tell, the script doesn't deliver any of them. It either needed to be much longer to tell all the stories, or cut down a lot to be interesting.
Basically, the movie has nothing to say, and takes a long time to not say it. If your compelled to see it, wait for DVD, not worth the ticket price, and nothing will be lost moving to a TV.
