Short version: Run away!
Long version:
I assumed this movie was a film rendition of the recent popular novel “The American”. It isn’t.
It has been some time since audience members have left a movie I’ve attended. The viewing I saw was sparsely attended, but lost about 1/3 of the audience before the movie ended.
It wasn’t that it was so bad… just that it was BORING. Really boring. At least I had some onscreen gun assembly / silencer building that could interest me, pity the rest of those suffering with me.
Anway, don’t go.

George Clooney falls in the same category as Susuan Saranwrap, Tim Robbins and Sean Penn- idiots who have parlayed their meager acting talents into a way of getting publicity for their leftist ideology.
I work too hard to spend one dime of my money enriching these fools. They make the best movie thats ever been made, I’ll just have to sacrifice and not see it.

Normally, I’m with you. But the book I thought this was the movie of was very pro GWOT, military, tough on terrorism. So I thought maybe this would be redemptive of Clooney. It doesn’t cover at all why everybody is killing everybody, and Swedes are the bad guys, so it is definitely not a war on terror movie.
