Three wasted hours. I want my time back!

Rating: Null/10 (25 December 2006)

Three hours of dreary, lackluster, boring Matt Damon walking around like an android while talking in unnecessary whispers. It spans about thirty years and he never gets older! Well, at lease Angelina looked older. The previews for this movie were all hype about being a great movie about the origins of the CIA. Instead it was a wasted three hours. I kept waiting for something to happen. Nothing did.
The historical footage could probably be considered the highlight of this film. I'm not sure that it can all be blamed on De Niro. The script seems to be the primary source of boredom though De Niro adds nothing to it to give a life of its own. The flashbacks were confusing while jumping from decade to decade without rhyme or reason. This is story telling at its worse! De Niro, stick to acting.
