I'm not quite sure why this movie has such low rating (6 at the time of my writing).
It's true, this is a Bourne knock-off with some clichéd characters but I found the movie quite entertaining. It's not as good as the Bourne movies (the original 3) but it's still pretty decent - the acting is good, the story feels thought out and mostly believable. I couldn't immediately find any plot holes (there may be several, but at least they're not so obvious as they are with some very high-rated movies). The soundtrack went well with the movie, keeping up the tense feeling through the story.
The visual effects are nice and toned down (no constant explosions, no kung-fu fighting flying through the air, etc.) - this was a welcome change after absurd and over-done visual effects in most current (action) movies.
While this is not a masterpiece, I enjoyed watching it and I'd certainly recommend it, especially to fans of the Bourne series. 8 out of 10.
