Come on Leo, Russell, and Ridley. Did you think you could just take a rote spy movie, throw in some solid performances, a couple dozen explosions, and lots of exotic locations and you'd win Oscars?

Like, you just just mashed up the Bourne movies with a few Tom Clancy novels and shat out Body of Lies. Really, they are. Check it out:
