It's an ok movie. Not great, not terrible, just ok. Redford was so-so (keep your shirt on, man! you're getting old!), Gandolfini was much better. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to suspend disbelief quite as much as they wanted me to near the end. There was lots of action at that point but I couldn't help thinking, "and they did that... how?"
So, yeah, it's just ok. Don't rush out and rent it.
