I didn't think it was quite that bad - for one thing, Rachel Weisz improves any movie that isn't a sequel, and Bob Hoskins as Nikita Khrushchev is almost worth the price of the rental.
Its a decent movie. Hoskins is good. And some of the sniper vs. sniper moments are good and tense. But there's a better movie that I can't remember the name of that covers a similar situation (dueling snipers) set in Bosnia I believe. What the heck is it...
I thought it was pretty okay, actually. Its biggest problem was that you had no idea who to root for. I mean, yeah, Jude Law and Rachel Weisz, obviously, but when it's the Nazis versus the "two men, one gun" Commies... yeah.
