The tomatometer on rottentomatoes rates it as zero. This is the lowest rating I've ever seen there. Of course they only have 6 reviews in so far; when more reviewers get to it it will undoubtedly go up since some one will like it.
As of this posting, the rating is up to a robust 6%. One good review from the New York Post of all places. I was actually planning to see this movie with my friends this weekend but now I'm having second thoughts. The Variety review is right that the book is very cinematic and I figured this was a sure thing, now I've lost faith in Hanks, whose films have never disappointed me once.
