There was always something going on which sometimes made it difficult to follow due to its fast pace.
This coming from someone who often uses "boring" as a criticism? I don't know; filmmakers can't win these days.
(FWIW, though, I didn't like Syriana either.)
As far as Hackman goes, what else have you seen him in? Check out Night Moves (1975) and The Conversation (1974). The former is a typically '70s film, low-key and ambiguous - if you like private eye films, this one's for you; the latter is Francis Ford Coppola's best film (possibly - I need to re-watch The Godfather films), an intriguing and impeccable masterpiece.
