Viewing Notes

Very silly stuff but give ‘em credit for giving this a video game feel with the adventure and puzzles. Have only seen this twice before now and not since its sequel so I had forgotten a lot of this including the main villain, who does another villain turn in a video game movie series Resident Evil, Iain Glen.

Forgot entirely about Daniel Craig who wasn’t yet a big name yet but has a nice role in this. Odd that half his dialogue is dubbed and even more odd why even bother giving him an American accent? Makes no sense in the context of this story especially when Angelina is doing a British accent.
