    Body of Lies

    body of lies

    a suspeneful movie with a lot of twists and turns and no communication between allies a little hard to follow but a very good movie

  • Go

    Done before a few times but still a good story of one against the politics and doubledealing

    LD and RC are good actors and make this an engrossing film with no reason to not fall headlong into the styoryline, the action is good but not the typical overdone that hollywood loves so much, the actions and reactions seem realistic and the finish does seem to be realistic and not just the mushy or twisted end, I'd see this again on DVD and perhaps even buy it which says a lot.

    Recommend seeing this with friends or alone, its an 'R' so no kids but not for nudity but more gore and language....Grade B+
