    charlie wilson's war

    not movie ticket or rental price worthy but if you can see it for free on tv then it's not a bad movie. I like Tom Hanks and Julia Roberts together, they did a good job. I'm absolutely against the US being involved in other countries' business so on that point I didn't like the story but the acting was good. Amy Adams was a nice surprise. It was nice to see her not being ditzy for a change.

    tom hanks does it again

    i was interested in this movie when i heard about it, and glad when i saw it. tom never and i do mean never lets us down, the movie may suck( like cast away) but he's solid. however, this movie did not dissappoint. it was an entertaining acheivment. julia didn't fair so well. i found her annoying. but filled the role. p.s.h. was great. he did an excellent job. i would watch it again. 3 out of 5 bags of popcorn

    Enjoyable, lots of questions left unanswered

    While the movie isn't billed as completely accurate historically, it really stretches things at certain points. It would've been much more interesting if they went into how the Afgans were armed by the US and then left to fend for themselves.
