Rating: 4/10 (29 December 2006)

I find it incredible that this movie has been rated so highly. Usually I tend to agree with the ratings for movies posted on this site, but getting a 7+ rating for this movie is really ridiculous! This was a very boring movie. Way too long and that's just the start of all things bad in this movie. Right from the beginning, you never know why the main protagonist is good at what he does. There is absolutely nothing presented that corroborates this fact. Matt Damon displays his full range of emotions in this movie - NONE! Angelina Jolie was awful as were the other characters in the movie. I believe good movies are where the viewer is engaged and sucked into the storytelling, not bored to death! I am sorry but Bob DeNiro has a long way to go before he can be taken seriously as a director. One wonders if the studios have paid all these so called 'critics' to give it such high ratings.
