Excellent, smart action film.
Tells a fascinating and unsettling true story, and does so well, without pretending to have all the answers.
The tone of this movie is interesting -- the stakes are both dramatic and high, but it's balanced with a lot of fun, tongue and cheek dialogue.
Great movie. Not sure what people expected but I found it highly entertaining.
