You'd think a Clive Owen banking/spy/assassination thriller would be better than this. It's not his fault - it seemed that they had a big budget, but wasted it on his salary and a few very good chase seems (the Guggenheim shootup was ultra cool). Far too many plot points were told through 2 people talking - extended talks - boring talks - when most movies would've shot scenes showing those events. Naomi, always solid, had too small a part. The story was interesting, the movie could've been much better.
