It's a mission De Palma shouldn't have chosen to accept.

There are just a few groovy special effects and a practically incomprehensible story which we finally can't work up enough energy to care about.

The most dour, sexless piece of escapism in memory.

Still holds up as a fun, unique entry in the action spy genre and launched Tom Cruise's second career arc as an action megastar.

Humorless, charmless and flat.
