I consider this one of the worst movies I've ever seen. The plot dragged so slow I was bored after watching it after about fifteen or twenty minutes. When I was younger, I vowed never to go to the restroom during a good movie after I missed something important and exciting in one. In this movie I went to the restroom when I didn't have to go and purposly took my time in returning. After the movie was over I asked someone if I missed much and they said that I didn't.

I found this movie intelligent, smart, and compelling that require a slow, deliberate unfounding plot. It was important for me to experience the density and the thick atmosphere of espionage instead of more popular action packed, thriller. Too often, espionage films end up more about fancy equipment and high tech gibberish. With this movie, it was more about the personalities, the real espionage stuff not the flash of today's artificial entertainment.
