Softwing
Most undeservingly overhyped movie of all time??

Entertaining from beginning to end, it maintains the spirit of the franchise while establishing it's own seal with a fun cast

It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

I'm too tired to think and be insightful, though I've had the energy to read some of the other reviews and I think most USERS got it right. There's enough nice scenery, things to try and figure out (though not that tough) and story here to keep one mildly entertained. Though if you're like me watching via streaming video and are pulled away at mid-point there is no guarantee the film will be finished later. I would bet the makers knew they were putting together a movie for the sake of making a movie, as opposed to being particularly inspired. WARNING: Kilmer has put on much weight. You'd think the makers would be smart enough to eliminate action, chase scenes, etc. Wrong. Val is seen too often outrunning fit men at a pace assuring last place at the local fundraising 5K race. Hey Val, the ambulance is right behind you and they've already closed the finish line reception.

Oh my gosh. Val Kilmer, what are you doing in such a grade B movie? The plot was so unreal, it was stupid at times. The acting was just as bad. The actions of the dumb doctor here (played by Kilmer) were so out of the ordinary of a regular person, they were almost laughable. Of course, the really bad cartel guys were so bad, it made for a 2nd plot line. The only redeeming factor was to see the pretty Isabella Miko play the agent. What a beauty. This film opened in Thailand. So, you get the idea. A waste of talent, film, and time. Just horrible!

A disappointing film. I actually enjoyed Val Kilmer's the Saint (pacy action, use of gadgets) however corny it may have been, so I hoped for something similar with this, ie a couple of hours of light relief. Sadly this film is unremarkable, a 'me-too' 80's thriller that covers ground that already so familiar from previous Eastern European / spy / cold war movies. The authentic settings catch your interest at the start but there is nothing in the plot to hold this. The girl is beautiful but the men are all clichés. I considered walking out and going for a pizza, several times, but hope kept me in my seat, mistakenly. At the end I walked out muttering about 2 hours of my life wasted.

The older Val Kilmer gets the worst he is.Fatty, heavy, clumsy and without any ability to show any emotion. He looks like a stoned junkie.The story itself is below average.Double, triple, quadruple agents are messing with each other without any sign of consistency. Boring characters, boring storyline, no acting, predictable outcome.Everything is there to make you feel cheated.The main disappointment is Kilmer. I think he is drinking too much. His face is puffy, he moves like a tired elephant.Don't waste your time...
