A simple movie which could have been better. Chris Rock plays the confused and torn investment banker who is pushed from all sides to start an affair with his old time friend, but holds steadfast. The climax is typical with some drab moments in during the middle. Some "semi-laughable" moments during the starting of the film, but nothing remarkable.

A movie based on a Marvel comics character set in a modern setting. The screenplay kept jumping around a lot because the producers tried to put in more story in than required. Nicolas Cage looks *really* old - time for him to retire from young roles. The modern setting kind of gives a confusing picture to the movie. I felt the movie would have been better had it been left to the old setting. The roles of the investigators and police standing around as hapless spectators served no purpose and could have been easily got away with.

The best of the three. The antagonist-protagonist roles of Chris Cooper and Ryan Philippe brings about a wonderful presence on the screen. Based on the real life of Robert Hanssen (who was considered the biggest security breach in the FBI), the movie throws light on the mind of a spy. Chris Cooper plays the role to its best and so does Ryan. Very good choices for the roles. The movie was made "filmy" but that is expected given that without it half the audience might have been asleep. What I couldnt understand is why did the director have the story written such that Chris Cooper is made doubtful of counterintelligence operations surrounding him, but still goes ahead and makes a drop by just believing the words of his subordinate ! That appeared very stoopid in the movie. Nonetheless, the movie stands out with its wonderful portrayal of the subtle but short relationship between the protagonist and the antagonist. A "definitely watchable"
