Did you forget this is a period piece that spans over 2 decades? People don't last forever.

The point was to give you a great idea of what kind of person Damon's character was. Quiet, mysterious. Closed book, perfect for the CIA, no?

I cant recall the last time I simply wanted to movie to end this badly (wait...actually I can... the 3rd Lord Of The Rings).
After seeing this I hope DeNiro waits another 13 years before directing again. I've thought it through, analyzed it, tried to like it... it's just a bad movie, simple as that.

I see your point so I'll leave it at that. Everyone's got their taste.
Atleast I agree with you on KKBB
