Aside from the really annoying "flash forward" moments, this movie is pretty good -- better than I expected. I think the most amazing scene is when Banks reflects on what it's like to kill someone. It's like Banks is Jack Bauer's amoral twin -- Jack hates to kill but does it because it's necessary to save his country; Banks hates to kill but does it because it's necessary to pay for his expensive lifestyle.
Melora Walters is miscast. I wonder if the role was originally offered to Meg Ryan, since she seems to be one of the producers.
Also annoying -- Kiefer spouting Latin epigrams. Banks may have been an ivy-league educated genius, but in my experience (and, yes, I do have some experience of the type!) they don't study Latin anymore.
And, the last, single gunshot at the end -- I have to wonder if there was another gunshot "after" -- or, maybe Banks lets one of the targets live? Which one?
