:(

Average at best.

Ridiculous plot, insanely stupid special effects (especially the elevator shaft scene.

...and dare I say Angelina Jolie didn't look particularly good in this movie at all. Frail with bad hair, average hair and then HORRENDOUS hair.

I was very disappointed.

I caught this movie over the weekend. It is basically one of the Bourne movies
except the main character is a chick. The story was kind of interesting but very
far fetched of course. Action scenes were way over the top but still fun to watch.
At 100 minutes it was fast paced at least and overall it was enjoyable to drop
$6.50 and watch it. Not the biggest Jolie fan but she does alright in this movie, I
respect her for doing quite a few of her own stunts. I would probably give it 3 / 4.

I think when they originally wrote the screenplay, it was meant for Tom Cruise.

T-Bone's review was pretty good. I though LOVED this movie. It was fast-paced and I loved the story about Soviet Sleeper Agents. It has been done before but it seemed like it was a fresh idea here. Angelina Jolie took a part written for Tom Cruise and made it her own. If you can suspend belief while she jumps from rig to rig on the expressway,or manages to disarm what seems like dozens of cops,soldiers & agents,you will enjoy this film. I give it 4 out of 5 stars. The best film I have seen this year,with Iron Man second & A-Team 3rd. Everything else was just kind of "meh".

So they expected Tom Cruise to pull the rubber mask off again? Didn't that suck already in Mission Impossible, or was it Mission Impossible 2?

You gotta admit Jimmy, she's not looking as good as in Tomb Raider or Wanted. She was smokin' hot in both. She's pretty blah looking in this flick, especially at the end.

Two things... sat in a Salt panel at SDCC last week. Tweeted the bourne movie comparison as soon as the trailer played and they spent quite a bit of time talking about the gender change for the main character. "it didn't just change her character, it really changed the way we looked at the relationship between her character and everyone else." Really? no shit. The panel was beyond boring, the movie ddn't look much better.
