I decided not to see it because Matt Lauer ruined the end of the movie
on the day it premiered.  During the Today Show, he asked Sean Connery
the following question: 

"So, this is a good role for you.  And as I understand it, they've left
the ending wide open for a sequel.  Are you planning on signing on for a
few sequels?"

And Mr. Connery replied: 

"Well..... I.... uh..... Sort of.... Die in this one.  So, no."

Nice, eh?  The stage crew is laughing its collective head off as Lauer
looks at the camera and says: "Man, I hope I just didn't ruin it for a
few million people."

Ya think?

Looks like I dodged a bullet, huh?
