Movie was REAL slow, I don`t know how many times I started to dose off. This movie was meant to be read as a novel, not a movie. BOOOOOOOORING

It was so long and bounced around so much it was hard to follow. Staying awake was the chanllenge.

Action? NO. This was a drama. Had the -ads- stated this more clearly I would give it 5/5 - as it is it got 3/5. Although I like all kinds of films - action, comedy, drama, docu, si-fi, ... and yes I even read books - I thought I was in for a good drama/action - not a long drama with little action. Had this been clearly stated - I would have enjoyed it a lot more. It is a very good film.

The movie, while a little slow and long, was alright - Damn`s excellent acting saved the movie. I think De Niro was trying to follow the style of Godfather Part 2 with teh jumpng from past to present - at times it worked, but at times it didn`t - partly because teh characters (Jolie, Damon and Hurt) hardly looked like they aged in the 20 years or so of the movie - people get old over 20 years - even actors. Not a bad flick, but it could have been a lot better.

A thoughtful provocative film which restores my faith that Hollywood does`nt always play to the lowest common denominator.

This film was painful to watch the pace was so slow, it kept jumping from the past, to the present in no particular order. I wouldn`t waste my money seeing in the theatre, I would wait for it to come out on DVD. Also, I am inclined to agree with the comment that the only actor who deserves anykind of recognition for this movie is the tortured russian.

I hate to be critical of a movie with such a strong cast, but this was, truly, the worst movie I have ever seen!! It was extremely slow and beyond boring. In between my attempts to pay attention and stay awake, I planned out the rest of my life. I also managed to figure out what to wear, should I decide to go out on New Year`s eve. It was hardly a thought provoking movie. I wouldn`t even suggest renting it on DVD, as there was absolutely nothing noteworthy about it.

A good film. Not your typical hollywood shoot em up CIA films but well directed and a thought provoking storyline.
