Body of Lies review
Daniel Corleone - wrote on 12/29/11
Both the CIA and Jordanian Intelligence to catch "Al-Saleem", a Jihadist terrorist. Roger Ferris (Leonardo DiCaprio) is a case officer in Iraq and who was eventually abducted. Ed Hoffman (Russell Crowe) organizes a another operation thru a local agency operative named Skip (Vince Colosimo). Starts of enticing but falters in the middle. The picture had sensational realistic scenes and wonderful camera direction, if only the story could be the same. The acting was good but unfortunately the plot was not that engaging. Body of Lies is a decent crime film with two skilled actors.
