Do Not Waste your money

Rating: 6/10 (27 December 2006)

With a cast that includes Matt Damon, Angelina Jolie, William Hurt, and Robert DeNiro, you would assume the movie would be entertaining. This is exactly what was lacking from the film. It never peeked an interest, raised an eyebrow, or even drew a smile. This movie lacked a motive, a climax, and most importantly an ending that would be expected with a movie about the CIA. Rolling Stone magazine called it "The Godfather of CIA movies". Whoever the writer for Rolling Stone was should be fired, because the only thing that could possibly compare this movie to any Godfather movie would be Robert DeNiro and Francis Ford Coppola(who was an executive producer). In all fairness, the acting was good,as expected by the 5 Oscar winning actors in the movie, and DeNiro did a good job of directing. As far as entertainment goes, I'd rather watch House of Wax, at least I would get a chuckle from that. It now makes sense why this movie was snubbed by the Golden Globes.
