Have to disagree with Adam, Matty and everyone.  I found the movie incredibly boring.  I was trying to figure out what exactly was wrong with it.  I thought the plot got pretty sloppy in the last 30 minutes and I think the overall pacing suffered.  Compare it to something like Syriana, which managed to be intense and quick.  I felt like Body of Lies was just kind of plodding along and had far too many scenes that didn't further the plot in any way.

I haven't seen the movie, but, based on the trailer, this seems spot-on.  :)
