Reaction: So close to a profit! The budget was pretty high for a thriller, but we figured the popular combination of Robert Ludlum and Matt Damon (The Bourne series) would be enough to overcome to high production and talent costs. We figured wrong. It happens. Hopefully not too often though.
"It's fun watching Matt Damon in a thriller that doesn't involve him playing a seemingly super-human spy. Here, he is just a regular guy in a very irregular circumstance that makes for a riveting viewing." - Brian Edelstein - Time Out
"I don't demand that all movies make sense. I sometimes enjoy movies that make no sense whatsoever, if that's their intention. But a thriller is supposed to hold together in some sort of logical way, isn't it?" - Chris Mears, Slashfilm
"A very talented cast is ultimately held down by an incoherent plot, resulting in a very muddled thriller, uninvolving thriller." - Geoff Bray, Slant Magazine
