Despite the ridiculous plot (I would go in detail, but no spoiling here!), I feel that the writing itself was very good. There were lots of amazing quotes you can learn in this movie, and was somewhat entertaining despite the omission of romance which most movies insert to keep people engaged. I know that Clive Owen is always the heroic bad ass void of emotions, but he plays it so well!
My favorite quote "The hardest thing to learn in life is knowing which bridge to cross and which to burn....I'm the one you burn"

There are so many things wrong with this movie that it is hard to know where to begin.
Clive Owen plays the same character, in the same trenchcoat, that he has been playing for some time now, and much better than here. His 'smoldering' rage barely offsets Naomi Watts emotionally passive affect through 3/4 of the movie.
The international intrigue of the movie is like a boilerplate script that we have all essentially seen over and over again in the last 8 years.
The directing is horrible. Emotionally detached, though with the intent of drawing us into these international settings, there is no gravitas of any real character development throughout the environments until the very end, and then it is still washed out through a waste of good actors.
If you want a great international intrigue movie, then rent Casino Royale, one of the greatest movies ever made, and then watch all three Bourne movies.
If you want someone's washed out and limp homage to those movies, then watch this one.

I really wanted to like this film, I really did. However, there's really no saving grace for this film besides Clive Owen's acting, great cinematography, an original plot, and an outstanding shootout sequence. I have never seen a film so devoid of life. There is no humor, barely any action, and the dialogue is overly complex, bland, and lifeless. I wasn't expecting a shoot-em-up thriller like Taken or even the 007 films, but I was expecting a smart yet entertaining thriller. 'The International' does manage to be smart, but TOO smart, to the point where it is just not an enjoyable film. However, if you enjoy a very intelligent political thriller with much of the plot advancing through dialogue, then 'The International' may be your type of movie.
On a side note, the picture and audio quality is great. Not the best, but very impressive.

"The International" is a swift-paced thriller with a great scene in a famous New York City building. Interpol agent Louis Salinger (Clive Owen) and Manhattan Assistant District Attorney Eleanor Whitman (Naomi Watts) are investigating an international bank, headquartered in Luxembourg, that is involved in a catalogue of illegal activities ranging from money laundering and arms trading to the backing of coups in unstable third-world countries. Anyone who knows too much about the bank's operations and any law enforcement officer who gets close to digging up proof of the bank's clandestine activities are quickly eliminated by the bank's highly trained, lethal hit team.
A highlight of the movie is a dazzlingly filmed shoot-out in Manhattan's Guggenheim Museum, which is staged spectacularly. A key meeting at a climactic point in the film is to take place at the museum, and Salinger and his New York team are about to close in when all hell breaks loose and the art repository turns into a shooting gallery, with good guys, bad guys, and unknown guys with automatic weapons running up and down the museum's famous ramps as art patrons cringe, bullets fly, art is defaced, and blood splatters. This is one of the best action sequences I've seen in a movie in many a moon.
Blu-ray extras include deleted scenes, a making-of featurette, another featurette explaining how the Guggenheim sequence was planned and filmed, and director commentary. A digital copy of the movie is included with the Blu-ray edition.

Talk about a huge disappointment. After the firefight at the Guggenheim and the whole lecture on working outside the system and collateral damage, one would expect a big ending. Nope. Big nothing.
But since it was BluRay, it was a high-quality disappointment.
