Only the wonderful Anette Benning is worth it. The script is slow,boring and formulaic, and so cliché ridden. Strictly for (some) teenagers and morons, lots of them around.
Only Hollywood can mass produce such stinkers. Another day another dollar for some fat exec cat in Hollywood. Seeing this after 9/11 it isn't even eerie? what is more shocking this unreal junk or the terrorist attack? These propagandising films straight out of the offices and the wallets of that organisation and the Israeli lobby of course, and then there's the real deal.
"They are gonna hit the march?", one character says, "Can you imagine a better target?" Well it seems actual terrorists had a better imagination, which says a lot about the screenwriters.
To be honest there is a point to be made in that the Americans train their terrorists abroad and then unleash them upon themselves, takes a lot to be world bully, and someone's had to do it. But this simple point doesn't have to make for such bad films.
And of course this is whitewashed and watered down because the bad US general is arrested for the torture and murder of an arab suspect, not that much luck for any court marshal in Guantanamo...
Washington gives the umpteenth performance of that one character he plays all the time, or about 95% of the time to be precise.
Mr. Monk has a role as a side kick too, he's a good actor, but after monk he's too typecast to make him palatable.
Like I said Ms. Benning is a wonderful actress, too bad she didn't wear a bullet proof vest.
