If I could I'd rate it 0 stars because this Reviewer said it all, “his movie lacks a plot and spends too much time on nude scenes. waste of money..” 100% Waste of Good money!! I should have went to the Manager and got my $$$ back! Also Way too much spent on nude scenes!! Thats NOT what I pay my $$$$$ for, period. Where's the constructive Value in that??

Great film, but not for everyone. It relies on the actors' faces far more than on dialogue.

An intelligent, gripping movie. George Clooney is at his best and the rest of the cast is superb.

DO YOURSELF A FAVOUR, SAVE YOUR MONEY AND STAY HOME THIS IS A STINKER. POOR GEORGE.

this must be the worst movie I have seen in the last 5 years...heck maybe ever. no idea what it was about other than having sex and making a gun..totally mind numbing. all 18 other people in the theatre agreed ( which should have been an indication). DONT DO IT!

Very boring movie, no story content in my opinion. Very dissapointing!

I am glad I got to see the movie for free. I think because Clooney lives in Italy he MUST have been doing someone a favour to get an italian movie distributed in the states to make a tad bit more money. I tried my best to understand the little symbolism that was in the movie. I tried my hardest to get the minimalist style of acting from everyone in the film, but I just think this film was meant for coffee house/arthouse showings and should not have been promoted like a Bourne film or spy type movie. The women were beautiful and sexy and everyones english was decent. But don't pay to see this movie. It's long and drawn out and I get that he's supposed to stay low and inconspicuous, but wow it

Boring to sit through. The end made no sense, total waste of time and money.

VERY slow action. Almost fell asleep during the movie.
