Filme mais ou menos, o roteiro é fraco, as cenas são mais ou menos, o elenco é bacaninha, mas ninguém ajudou a melhorar o filme, a história é fraca, e o filme deveria ter cenas bem melhores e mais relevantes, para fazer o filme ser bom, e mesmo com o Leonardo dicaprio e o Russell crowe o filme não alavancou em nada.

Bery much a product of it's time. It's alright enough I guess. DiCaprio isn't bad and going full tryhard but the character he's given just isn't that interesting either but he does a admirable job given what he's given. Everyone else though man is just forgettable. Not really their fault it's more to do with how jumpy this is. Farahani is good and arugably the best of the support. The editing isn't that good here. The biggest problem is besides DiCaprio everyone feels like they are forgotten about for long stretches. Farahani, Strong, Crowe, and the othersnever really share scenes together and because of that it just gets very hard to follow in the middle. It feels like the plot of setting up a fake terrorist organization and the actual plot of hunting down the real terrorist feel like two completely seperate sotries despite for the most part always being focused on DiCaprio. Everything else is just alright. The direction is hit or miss. Some scenes are great and well shot. While others look boring or hard to follow. This also assumes you know about the Middle East and the politics and America's involvment in 2006. It doesn't explain it at all and there are things I just don't know what there referencing. The music also starts out good but just gets overused a bit and generic as it goes on. This is very much a political thriller than a Bourne style movie. Judging by the poster I expected a movie like Ronin or Heat but it's nothing like that at all. Nothing really like Scott or DiCaprio have ever done. But it just isn't that focused, doesn't set things up well, and the characters just aren't that interesting. Skip This.

La actuación de DiCaprio y Crowe además de la trama estilo James bond, hace que olvides que está película es un artefacto propagandista, el cual no termina de definir si quiere ser neutral o poner en la balanza de bueno o malo a los Estado Unidos.

It was a little convoluted and confusing but it was pretty good. Watch if there's nothing else on.

In my top ten comedies of all time. I thought Up in Smoke wouldn't be equalled but it has.

I didn't fall asleep as there was plenty of action but my Wife and I had trouble following it. Probably best to pass on this one.

Excellent: Mark Strong's powerful performance raised the story far above what was to be expected.

Excellent script with great acting and cinematography. The pretentious "critics" on Rotten Tomatoes are nothing but self loathers that wish they could be part of a production-instead they use a thesaurus to find a bunch of words to feel good about their own pathetic existence. Dont be fooled. This is a great movie, realistic and nothing like a James Bond film (and I do like James Bond films).

CIA versus terrorists drama mostly set in the Middle East.

Nice cast, fine production but utterly stupid shite ; x6

Lazy and unpleasant despite its great cast.

I lived and worked in Damascus, Syria in the early ‘90's. This film accurately captured the feel of the ME region. Gritty, impoverished, lush, luxurious, brown and green oasis are the core diversity of the region. The film, brilliantly directed by Ridley Scott, is full of tense, immediate drama. One can object to unoriginal themes, but this film allowed me to decide which side of the moral dilemmas I support and how much I am willing to support them.

Good old fashioned CIA middle East movie with strong cast and plot.

Watched it many times. Really respectful of all the U.S. servicemen and woman who spend their lives fighting for our safety in ways I wasn't even aware of.

I side with the critics on this one. It's okay, not great. There are better spy thrillers out there.

Good action flick, though they seem to be overacting sometimes.

Watching this movie late at night, I felt like I was on speed. The pace over the first 20-30 minutes is unrelentingly confusing. The editing doesn't help and there is really no spacing between shots, scenes or locations. No hang time on emotional moments or dramatic events. I almost turned off before the 30 minute mark, down to the simple fact the movie felt like a student film that needed to fit within the 5 minute teacher-set remit but the students filmed a full 8 hours of footage. I don't know whether there was a serious issue in terms of editing, or re-writes, but it feels so disjointed it's hard to not feel like you're watching a home movie. For 2008, the film is shot awfully when compared to it's peers. Some of the cinematography is lazy and borderline archaic for this point in time and other similar movies put it to shame. The colour palette in the US based scenes is so under saturated you'd think you'd stepped into the Bourne Ultimatum. It further adds a sense of irrelevance to these already uninteresting cutaways from the action. They fall too easily into the trap of: Agent in the field does a thing, cutaway to Washington where nameless agents watch on via drone feed and talk technogibberish, main analyst makes a face, cut back. This sort of thing is a main-stay of countless episodes of Homeland, Bourne films, and other modern war films but this is by far the worst example I've seen. I'll give them credit for at least not being able to draw on characters they've built up, but I was so disinterested in Russel Crowe's character and his stupid earpiece, id rather they cut these scenes entirely. I expected better, and I'm not sure it's Leo's best performance, however safe to say there's enough wrong with this film to convince me it's probably not his fault. Even mark strong comes across amateurish in a role he'd usually play well. All in all, don't watch unless you really have nothing better to do and you've already binged every season of homeland, the Bourne films, Green zone, zero dark thirty, and every other 온라인카지노추천/Film adaptation of modern-war conflict.

Excellent lone-wolf intelligence terrorist snakehead tracking action, unbelievable Uzi can be like a sniper. Guess Ed can really use wireless communication even better bone conduction earphone. Really dogs wandering all over the space in 95% Muslim country??

Been a while since I've seen it so, I'll just give it three and a half for now. But I remember enjoying it, hence this rating.

Ridley Scott's foray into the world of surveillance in the middle east was pretty much panned across the board on release. As a Scott fan, when this reaction also met Kingdom Of Heaven (2005) I still felt it necessary to give it a go, and even went so far as purchasing the Directors Cut. Sadly it was rubbish. Happily, Body Of Lies is nowhere near as dull as Kingdom Of Heaven. Leonardo DiCaprio is Russell Crowe's agent on the ground all over the map (Iraq, Jordan, Syria amongst others) essentially gaining information to tackle the war on terror. Body Of Lies moves at breakneck speed, and there's no doubt that its pace makes it easier to forget its gaping plot holes and non-sensical decision making by some of those whose job it is makes these calls. DiCaprio ends up inventing a terrorist cell to coax a terrorist into the light for capture; it borders on ludicrousness but the editing is so swift in cutting and chopping you away from thinking about how and why this happening, you simply don't notice until afterwards. It's also helped in its attempted authenticity by a terrific performance from Mark Strong as the Jordanian General Intelligence Directorate, and a far too short cameo from Oscar Isaac early on. All in all Body Of Lies is a mess of a film, but it's a very entertaining one, and watching it in the current climate probably lends to the authenticity of the horrors on screen here.
