BODY OF LIES — SEE IT!


Just finished up the Ridley Scott movie, Body of Lies, on PPV.

It stars Leonardo DiCaprio and Russell Crowe, and is about spooks chasing an Osama-like killer in the Middle East. Excellently done, incredibly well-acted — DiCaprio is every bit as good as he was in the one about the blood diamonds, and Crowe is excellent as a somewhat-bureaucratic, removed-from-the-action handler.

Good plot, with a few really good subplots, a nice twist at the end, a hot looking Iranian/Palestinian nurse and plenty of action yet plenty of thinking required.

Why is it on PPV already, you ask?

Because it wasn't blatantly anti-American, simply realistic.

See it ...
