Standard fare, poorly done

Rating: 3/10 (3 April 2007)

Standard anti-CIA fare from Hollywood. The throwing in of a few moments with Joe Pesci to make the point that the CIA is racist, anti-Semitic, etc, etc, was particularly pathetic.
Matt Damon's character never aged over the years, but he did change glasses now and then so we could tell what decade we were in. Terrible film-making, almost laughable.
Spoiler: This fiasco gets a score above one only because the "throw the bride from the plane" scene was right out of a Steven Segal flick and nifty - if you like that sort of action-adventure. And btw, the director was sympathetic to this duplicitous woman whose spying caused the death of many - reminded me of "Syriana" where the only good guy was the suicide-bomber terrorist.
Objectively this was a poorly made movie on many levels. I have to wonder just how much film makers and critics hate America in order to see such badly done fare as high-quality.
