An excellent speculative collaboration regarding the "so called" WMD's we never found in Iraq. A well woven plot, believable, pertinent to our times. He still tends to "chase" excessively in all his movies, but this movie is not a complete fictional plot, because it raises possible realities regarding the middle east. I liked the casting.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

Matt Damon delivers his usual believable performance, unfortunately it's in a fairly stale plot line. The secondary characters are not well developed at all with the movie almost boring at times. You keeping hoping for the extra intrigue or twist that goes with a intelligence thriller but it never happens. Bottom line: I had high expectations based on the trailer but it does not live up to its billing. Hurt Locker is much better constructed.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

A pretty good movie. Although this movie should have come out back when Sadam was captured. Matt Damon is excellent and so are the other cast members. It just seems out of place today, since everyone knew the real reason we went into Iraq

THIS movie has a story and a plot! Matt Damon is a young Harrison Ford always great in his roles that deliver suspense. And Greg Kinnear racks up so many diverse roles since his silly origins of hosting TV's TALK SOUP, this is just another one for him! The documentary style hand-held camera work gets a bit wiggly and annoying at times. But the movie really makes you think about "what if" there was a true cover up of WMD's not existing in IRAQ from the outset of the war. Go this film to be entertained, and concentrate on the plot, at least there IS one...AND script....which THE HURT LOCKER had neither.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

Multiple viewpoints. Enough combat action to keep the boys happy; conspiracy theorists will have a field day; love-hate relationship with the CIA; love-hate relationship with the government power brokers; journalism run amuck; idealistic soldier; and the everyday man-in-the street trying to save his country. What more could you ask? No...no love interest in this movie!

Never tire of hearing Bush-era botch-ups. Too bad this wasn't released in 2008 when it was shot . Might have had some impact and generated the outrage Greengrass filled every scene with. The acting was good, but the hand-held camera often brought more vertigo than excitement. Still, a tale worth telling.

Matt Damon delivers another authentic performance as a real guy (although more handsome and compelling to watch than most real guys) working as an Army officer in Iraq, circa 2003.
His job is to locate weapons of mass destruction; however, he and his team keep coming up empty.
As he becomes more and more frustrated, he begins working with an unpopular CIA agent.
Although this movie certainly suggests that the Iraq war was unfounded (if the reasoning was WMDs), it is not an anti-war movie...nor is it "soft" on action, bad-ass Special Forces sequences, or noble-minded Americans trying to make the best of a bad situation. Damon plays a good guy, working with other good guys....The grey area is who is bad and who is not.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

I did like the movie but I did expect more out of it. I may have had this expectation because of my love for the Bourne movies. The reviews that claim the camera bounced around and took away from the movie are wrong. One of the main reason I like the Bourne movies is because the director doesn't over exaggerate explosions and keeps the action within check with reality. If the camera bounces it gives you the illusion that you are right there in the action.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

I saw the movie based on the actor, unfortunately it is not Matt's finest. His acting was great, but it tended to drag through out. The final outcome of the movie was not what I expected and it surprised me that it wasn't more factual on the truth. In spite of it all, I still like Matt Damon, his acting, skills and overall performance.
No, I do not recommend this movie.

Matt Damon is too good an actor to waste time doing this kind of political nonsense. Poorly disguised political commentary on the war in Iraq. If I wanted this sort of slanted view I would watch CNN. Should have gone to Alice in Wonderland instead. Would have been more realistic!

Don't waste your hard earned dollars on this one. It was 2 hours of "Bush Lied" and we are in Iraq for NO reason at all. Let just forget that Saddam Hussain used gas to wipe out villages of women anc children. I guess that doesn't count as WMD. Iraq is a democracy today and this movie is already old news.
Matt Damon is a good actor but he has nothing between the ears.

Despite many shortcomings in the movie, Matt Damon had an enjoyable performance. Put a good captain on a poor boat, and there is only so much you can do with it. The camera bounced around too much. Lots of fuzzy and dusty lens effects actually detracted from the feel. It was either low budget or bad judgement. Actors scored well, script was weak, directing was sketchy. Too bad Matt, good luck picking your next one.
No, I do not recommend this movie.

I loved the Bourne movies & like them I loved the main character played by Matt Damon. He played a 'Joe' Solider, smarter than most, who realized pretty quick, something's not right about the phoney WMD's story. Makes u think we're not told all about the War we're in. This Movie has more realistic action & drama & I felt like I was there in Iraq with our troups. God Bless them all. I'm a real FAN of Matt Damon & the action in this movie is intense. Go see it, I will buy the DVD.

Yes, the movie was "action packed"- however, the cinematography was so distracting--it really took away from the film.
Yes, Matt Damon was "as good as ever"- however, his role seemed overplayed..
Overall, it was entertaining, but trite at times, the message was political-- and we all know the predictable ending.
It would have been better with a deeper plot, less war scenes.
Would wait til it comes out on DVD- or see on matinee.
No, I do not recommend this movie.
