To say the least!! My wife and I enjoyed this Movie. To date, we've watched the DVD 5 times. It's the best.... Full review

It was an interesting movie. If true, I had no idea that this is how the Afghan war played out from the U.S. perspective. Hanks, as always, is solid if not impressive.... Full review

The movie was very educational and instructive, but most of all well played and directed. It opens the eyes on how we got into this mess in the first place, some people call it Karma. I think that Philip Seymour Hoffman's... Full review

I thought was a long drawn out piece of junk. What a waste of Hank's talent. The plot jumps from this to that, and to this again. Take a line and follow it please!... Full review

Everything about this movie is captivating. Why the critics gave it so-so rating is beyond me. Wesley Morris was particularly harsh, but I'm not surprised as this is the 3rd movie he has hated that I've liked. I'm curious what Wesley... Full review

Movie does not even come close to telling the true story. Story wanders around and characters come and go. If you have time to kill it o.k. but check the history channel it is much much better and is the true... Full review

I don't know what happened to my initial review but without being too redundant, the only reason I watched this movie was because of its all star cast and in my opinion, it didn't disappoint. Phillip Seymour Hoffman had the strongest... Full review

I thought this would be good but it was even better than I expected. I like real life stories and this one will have you scratching your head at how things get done, or not done in Congress. I'm a conservative... Full review

Plus, with the fast pace of the film and the exceeding welcome 1 hour and 40 minute (approx) running time, the movie tells its story without wearing out its welcome. While the ultimate goal, much like Julia Roberts' character points out is the opportunity to deliver religious freedom to several sects of people who were being oppressed by the Russians, is a noble one indeed, the disrespect that the Americans helping them remained. ...

The film is fast and funny, with somber undertones; marvel at how Amy Adams owns a minor role. When you see her, Roberts' performance seems better than it originally did. ... Full Review
