Not good. Not bad.

Rating: 7/10 (28 January 2007)

I saw The Good Shepherd Friday. It wasn't bad, and there was nothing really bad to say about it. At the same, however, there is little to say was great about it. Should have seen it on DVD.
There were a lot of good actors in the flick, such as Matt Damon, Robert Dinero and Angelina Jolie. But there was very little action and not enough tension to carry a movie that had this small amount of action. I also was looking and holing for more in the way of James Bond-ish spy things. There was also little in The Good Shepherd as far as the inner workings of the Central Intelligence Agency, which bummed me out. I would liked to have seen more of that along with more information about the Skull and Bones secret society.
All in all, the Good Shepherd was about a C+ movie. Nothing bad, but nothing to call Oscar about.
