Henry Cavill and Armie Hammer are fine. They're FINE. They're maddeningly, generically fine.

It all ends up sounding a bit like The Matrix's Agent Smith doing Roger Moore doing James Bond.

There's still time this summer for another adaptation of a 1960s TV spy series. Generating the same amount of thrills, however, proves to be a true mission impossible.

Exactly no one was asking for this. So it's a surprise to discover that the bar for this movie is low enough to conga under.
