Body of Lies

">
In Ridley Scott's most recent film Body of Lies made me think of what our government migh actually be doing on this "War on Terror". The character DiCaprio played was an front line CIA agent who dealt with the the dirty covert jobs on finding intelligence relating to the terrorist group. Crowe, DiCaprio's boss is depicted as a typical DC politician who has no idea what is going on but is going to make all the decisions because he is the head honcho, which in turn screws things up for DiCaprio and almost gets killed. I enjoy these types of action suspense filled movies and this movie fit category like a charm. I really enjoyed this movie. It had it all, a girl big name actors/director, and a solid story line from a book by David Ignatius. The movies title i am not too sure of but if i were to speculate the (Body) is for the death all due the lack of trust (Lies) between the US and the Middle East. This movie is one of my favorites.
