Editorial Review:
The CIAs hunt is on for the mastermind of a wave of terrorist attacks. Roger Ferris is the agencys man on the ground, moving from place to place, scrambling to stay ahead of ever-shifting events. An eye in the sky a satellite link watches Ferris. At the other end of that real-time link is the CIAs Ed Hoffman, strategizing events from thousands of miles away. And as Ferris nears the target, he discovers trust can be just as dangerous as it is necessary for survival. Leonardo DiCaprio (as Ferris) and Russell Crowe (as Hoffman) star in Body of Lies, adapted by William Monahan (The Departed) from the David Ignatius novel. Ridley Scott (American Gangster, Black Hawk Down) directs this impactful tale, orchestrating exciting action sequences and plunging viewers into a bold spy thriller for our time.
Body of Lies (Widescreen Edition) Reviews:
Great movie! 
2009-10-16 - This was a really great movie. It never caught my attention before. It has a lots of action and shooting if you are into that stuff. I don't want to spoil it for you but I thought the movie was great and not a waste of time.
Nice movie 
2009-10-05 - This is a very good movie, it takes a while to get to the action, but when it gets started I think you will feel it was worth the wait. Mr. dicaprio was kind hard to take him as a real CIA officer, russell crowe, played the part of a un-trusthworthy, crummy CIA boss he really sucked, it's might be true, that how they are in real life, it's local is the middle east. That country is a real piece of dirt, it's too bad we have loss so many good American troops there.
Great Movie
2009-09-23 - Great Movie.The lead characters do a great job of playing off the American insolence with the Arab intransigence. I thought the acting was superb. The locales were right on. I continue to be amazed by both Crowe and DiCaprio. They get it. Reading the one stars, they don't. Overall, a great action and non-biased view of the way things work.
Definitely Terrific Film
2009-09-16 - A good one, starring Leonardo DiCaprio and Russell Crowe. About spies, the Middle East and terrorism. Excellent performances by everyone in the film; great direction too. And finally a script that doesn't let up.
big cast with stupid plot 
2009-08-29 - This movie was so unconvincing. A trained CIA agent entrusted to an independent operation in the middle east even overpowering the director in Jordan is acting like a hot-blooded rookie (a girl friend in enemy territory, come on, like "hey, why don't you guys kidnap my girl friend to blackmail me!" Muahahaha!!!), without calm, and without brains. The CIA boss played by Russell Crowe was a waste of talent as well. The role has no importance. Appearance and decision made were also unreasonable and unnecessary. Comparing to the Bourne series, this one is totally laughable.
