Wow. All I can say. Ben Affleck's Gone Baby Gone (94% on Rotten Tomato) was surprisingly good; and The Town (also 94%, and critically acclaimed) was really good — reminded me of Michael Mann's "Heat" — and truly showed that Ben Affleck had grown up as an actor and a new director. Now, ARGO, takes him to a new level. I cannot say enough about this film: smart, suspenseful, interesting, powerful. ... I remember living through that time period 1979-1980/1981, although I was just a pre-teen back then, and I truly think Ben Affleck brought the unknown amazing story behind the very well known tragic events to life in a way that was brilliantly done to make you feel "present" as if YOU were one of the six Americans in hiding. Just go see this movie. You'll be glad you did.
Pros well paced, great story, great actors
Yes, I recommend this movie.

Ok, so it's NOT as good as Borat, but it was still hillarioüs!! Sasha Cohen is brilliant, shocking, and funny is heck. Still gets two-thumbs up... but "Hangover" was better!
Yes, I recommend this movie.
