I really enjoyed this. It did take me little while to "become involved" with the story, but once I did, the story did a wonderful job of keeping me hooked. Intense ... but not your ordinary "spy" movie.... I had the benefit of not reading the synopsis before going, so that probably plays a part in the way it effected me as well. Don Cheadle did a fantastic job, as well did Guy Pearce. This will certainly be on my DVD purchase list.
