Leo and Russell usually are pretty smart when it comes to choosing scripts...oh, well, you can't win them all. - myheartsnsocal Wed, 15 Oct 2008 03:56:17 +0100 http://themovie-fanatic.com/film_reviews/current/body-of-lies/#comment-4223 For as much potential as this movie had going into in, it is interesting how boring it ended up being. The action scenes and performances were good but the story tried to get cute. The terrorism plot is not the problem at all, it is the script added to the films construction that keeps this from being great. - Jeremy Tue, 14 Oct 2008 14:30:12 +0100 http://themovie-fanatic.com/film_reviews/current/body-of-lies/#comment-4216 I think you missed the point completely. for example, it isn't a movie lacking in personal feelings, it's about the contrast between the two main characters, one with no personal feelings or feelings limited to his own small world of children and family, and the other with a whole range of emotions and involvement with another culture. Great Movie, Ridley Scott never disappoints, ignore this review and go and see for yourself. And yes, I think it's time you went to see something about terrorism that isn't filled with cliches and convenient them/us judgements. - Storm Griffin Tue, 14 Oct 2008 13:25:56 +0100 http://themovie-fanatic.com/film_reviews/current/body-of-lies/#comment-4211 I think my choice in films-to-see is getting rather sad. Besides Eagle Eye (and well Burn After Reading), I've been waiting for this film. I mean, with Ridley Scott, Leo DiCaprio, and Russell Crowe involved, what are people supposed to think besides 'must see'? I am completely bummed now...lol. Doesn't mean I'm not going see it, but still...grrr! Thanks for preparing me, now I can lower my expectations accordingly. - myheartsnsocal Tue, 14 Oct 2008 12:04:21 +0100 http://themovie-fanatic.com/film_reviews/current/body-of-lies/#comment-4209 Thanks for the review, that's why I'm not wondering little, "cute" dogs own this movie. I don't think we are prepare to embrace a terrorist-themed movie as of yet, too much serious, plus the politics would even make it more complicated. - jed Tue, 14 Oct 2008 09:08:56 +0100
