this movie and supposedly a thriller and have about five sub plot that develop simultaneously to climax at the end and but it end up more a a yawn . the writing be trite and the pace be slow and disjoint and the character be bore . george clooney look like he need to get into a gym and matt damon ham it up and the others seem to read their line from a teleprompter . the bad part of this movie be that it be carefully craft to be politically correct and so it end up say nothing at all about big business and oil and the middle east . i have see documentary provide more excitement . watch it only if there absolutely nothing else to do .
