Now this is what I call a movie worth going to see.
I am sure that those who did not like this movie were expecting the usual Hollywoood attempt at glamorizing war, torture, greed and simplemindedness. Sorry you were so disappointed. It`s probably the trailers that sucked you in. All the fire, bombings,shooting and stuff. It is for people who enjoy a little truth with their entertainment;a really great movie. Sorry guys, but there are other shoot-em-ups coming from Hollywood for you. Until then, Dumb and Dumber is still available on DVD
FANTASTIC! A really well done film, but a bit depressing so be prepared. The acting was subtle and refined, and I wouldn`t be at all surprised if one or two Oscar nods are forthcoming.
WOW!!!! Awesome!! I watched it a second time!! It really got my brain synapses working overtime!! Want something that makes u think...watch Syriana!
An excellent movie. Definately for the intellectual that prefers to invest time in the truth. A challenge to watch because it demands your rapt attention. George Clooney and cast were fantastic and what I may have missed, I will pick up from the second viewing. Kind of along the same vein as "Lord Of War." For those that think the plot and subplots led nowhere and were uselessly thread together, well, sorry you were asked to use your imagination. Next time, save your money, stick your face in a bong, and rent The Fast and the Furious Part 2.
its not an action movie if thats ur expecting ..better to watch if ur really into politics, if ur not the movie is boring and drags,this movie shows some of the many things that keeps America going.
bad movie
I think the American Demicratic party paid to have this picture made. It was a slam packaged as a movie. The high gas prices due to the storm caused very sever fallout on the automotive industry because of high gas prices. We all want a strong energy policy but we also want to be able to say how aful it is when the goverment moves to secure oil futures. grow up and realize no one makes a move without motivation, even if we don`t like the motivating factors.
Worst movie of my life! heres a simple formula for a bad movie a brutally slow pace jumbled with a mass of characters you barly get to know = one terrible movie... Definately one for the "intellectuals" who want to discuss politics and business...
Overall I enjoyed the movie, liked the individual storylines and good acting by all. Finally a movie that potrays the Muslims with more personalities and not as fanatics or stereotypes as typically done.
