...strainer and plops like pulp in the kitchen sink. Note to critics: Not every work of popular art needs the mathematical precision of a Mozart sonata. It's true that the movie is studded with the sort of schemes a genius madman hatches in his basement. (One plan involves peanut butter, tiny bomb jackets and the use of rats as suicide bombers.) But if you have trouble accepting, even as a fantasy premise, that "A thousand years ago, a clan of weavers formed a secret society of assassins," fine, don't believe it; just sit back and watch the dazzle...
