2. Thanks
I figured it would be.

Only playing in a "boutique" theater here in Dallas, but I want to see it bad.

I will! :D

3. If you were angry with bush/cheney/libby
before you see the movie, be prepared to be ripping about how this went down. So many freakin lies were told and the bush administratin knew they were lying!!! DISGUSTING!!!

6. Excellent scenes inside CIA offices. Great exploration of that time in our lives.
Quite restrained performances.

Really fascinating look at that whole period and the rush to the disastrous war of choice that is still going on.

7. I liked it a lot.
Of course, it was infuriating to relive the whole Bush Cheney Libby thing, but I survived. And I didn't even hurl myself at the screen to murder the actor who played Libby. (He was GOOD. Actor, I mean.) This movie should be require viewing in high school.

9. This is America. Movies that tell the truth about something
in many instances get limited releases or are slowly market tested first.

12. I disagree
It's already being talked about for Oscar nominations, especially Sean Penn.

13. Perhaps the worst movie I have seen in a very long time
A real shame because the true story behind the film is so dramatic and intriguing.



It took every ounce of strength I possess to keep from laughing in the last 20 minutes of the film.
