Viewing Notes

A throwback spy thriller that I was kind of looking forward to seeing, but is, for the most part, underwhelming. The trailer pretty much gives away the two best set pieces. 

There’s a lot going on, but at the same time, most of the characters are barely fleshed out.

I didn’t realize this is a remake of a 1981 film. I’ll have to check that one out.
