I really wasn't left with much of an impression after watching Rising Sun. Of course, Sean Connery is terrific as usual, but that doesn't come as much of a surprise for anyone accustomed to his slick acting. Unfortunately, I think Rising Sun tries to be more than it is--in the end, as the mystery of who-did-it must be solved, suddenly we are provided with so many twists and turns that it's so muddled and unbelievable we don't care anymore. The final scene seems pretty uncalled for.
