Body of Lies (2008)
Great Espionage Movie. Unique Flavour to the tradecraft !
I've always been intrigued by espionage films. Since the UK's 007, to America's Jason Bourne, to movies more realistic like Breach,The recruit,Enemy of the state & SpyGame.
This movie channels along the same genre as 007 and Bourne, but those movies are more action orientated, where one man takes on all.
However,Body Of Lies is more realistic, where the main character needs help, and is in danger, and finds solutions to problems instead of shooting away like Rambo.
Unlike many of the other spy films it is staged in the middle east where they don't have technologies like the UK or USA, so they have their own way of passing and soliciting information. You still see satellites and and USA machinery, but it is only for a fraction of the movie.
It is a very unique fresh take on the Spy Genre and is a must for all who have enthusiasm for the Tradecraft. Especially since today, the USA is in a war with terrorists in the middle east, and the political madness is portrayed in this movie.
I gave it 9/10. I would give 10/10, but i felt the ending could have been built up slightly better. And i am critiquing harshly here,so Just watch it! Very Good movie!
It's a Boy Girl Thing (2006)
Story is better than you think. Not bad at all!!
Not bad at all! I was expecting something extremely silly, like Not another teen movie, with a light base on the romance story aspect, & just scenes of slapstick humor.
But this movie is more romance based,and has a deeper storyline than than comedy. Its similar to all the other American teen films, like she's all that, she's the man, etc. But the romance factor is kicked up a notch or two.
Some parts were totally lame, some parts were unique to this movie.
Which is why i gave it a 7. Samaire Armstrong makes me want to give it an 8.
Trust me, not a bad watch, Usually i hate American teenage movies.
