a stellar cast gets wasted in harmless political actioner.There's really not much room for anyone to act, meaning that Jennifer Garner gives the best performance since she is given chances to cry. It's certainly not a bad film, but there's nothing to make it rise above the ordinary. The big fight at the end is impressive and intense, but most of the film is really nothing to write home about, and it's not terribly interesting. Also the end felt like a cheap attempt to insert an important political message, as though the writer had forgotten about it until the final reels of the film and said "Wait! I know how we can make this movie sound IMPORTANT!"
