The November Man

This revitalized cold war caper starring Pierce Brosnan, is about as flat as they come.  Director Roger Donaldson manages to put a Bourne style feel and pace and look to it and sustains it for the most part halfway through.  But all that doesn't matter, as the double crossing story-line is not carried out by the best of actors, particularly by those who are the antagonists.  From then on, it limps along with lack of character development, that you just can't really give a fuck about at that point.  Quite frankly, when all clips are expended it, it felt like Pierce was slumming in this production.  Like at any moment, we could see Steven Seagal or Van Damme come out and help him with the baddies.
