Great effort by all!
5 April 2004
This movie is one of my favorites, so much I saw it three times! It combines tight direction from Mimi Leder (not bad for her first outing after ER), really good acting from G. Clooney (only his Perfect Storm effort is superior), Nicole Kidman (funny in that before this movie I wasn't a fan of hers) and support from Michael Boatman. A really good story, and very well written, that unfortunately is a very true danger now, nee SEPT 11 stuff. Loved the location filming thru Europe and NYC as well. Getting back to Clooney; this as I said, was a superior effort on his part, and he manages quite well to carry this film. The particular role of his in this film is worthy of a sequel, and as the chemistry was there between he and Nicole she should be there as well. I remember reading somewhere how the producers felt the film "underperformed" at the box office. Hard to understand that thought as the film made over $100M world wide.
