It was somewhat entertaining. But overall I felt that it was badly researched, very superficial, unlikable characters and there's a constant xenophobic undertone, which was really off-putting. Like other reviewers stated, the flaws might come from the fact that Terry Hayes is a screen play writer, and in a movie, the actors give depth to the characters.

There are too many convenient coincidences for the story to be believable, especially since the protagonist is supposed to be an amazing secret agent. Many revelations and conclusions are merely coincidence and have nothing to to with his alleged talents.
