| This is another well written and acted, vehicle for Clooney, Matt Damon, Christopher Plummer, Jeffrey Wright and a considerable number of actors whose names suggest Middle Eastern descent.

Though it's supposed to be based on true events I consider it an opportunity for the viewer to make up their own mind about how valid is what's being presented. It's definitely worth a look and can be loaned from virtually any public library or purchased inexpensively through Amazon or other retailer. It's also a nod to the increasing efforts of well heeled, established actors more than willing to bring their talents to films pertaining to important, current news topics, presented in an adult and sophisticated manner. | |
