This is NOT a movie for Fox "News" kool-aid drinkers. It is respectful to the players in that most of them have a contribution to make; however, it is a Matt Damon vehicle for sure. If you're going to movies to have your opinion justified or developed then you probably shouldn't see this movie, as you probably won't have enough maturity to understand the concept of dramatic license. I thought the central characters, except for the journalist, were fairly well developed. I also found the movie to be entertaining. As a statement of what really happened in Iraq or who was right or wrong or whose a patriot and who isn't; I don't develop that from movies or other entertainment venues like Fox "News" or CNBC "News".
Yes, I recommend this movie.

Burton - Depp Bring the Quirky
PostedMarch 8, 2010

Very good special effects, typical Burton/Depp treatment of an old story line. Quirky for adults, engaging for children (not younger than 7 though! - could be a little frightening). Entertaining couple of hours. The visuals are good and not much to do to change the story.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

Leonardo Stretches His Chops
PostedMarch 8, 2010

An interesting vehicle for DiCaprio to exhibit his range and intensity. The other actors in the movie are good actors in their own right but have little to do but give LDi his space; which he uses quite effectively. Not too surprising but very engaging. Adults will enjoy the inter-play and the 1950's atmosphere.
Yes, I recommend this movie.
