Bad story. Action to faked

Direction was slightly above average, but the drama and action didn't mesh well. The over-the-top aspects of the action scenes made the drama and political aspects seem manipulative, rather than meaningful. Keaton was very good, but the lead was a hard sell. The end, which portrayed the imminent assassination of an evil Iranian president, was distasteful and lowered the film a star for me.

Typical hollywood flick

Very violent. Great movie if you're into violence. Lost the plot about 30 minutes in.
