Movie Moment: Body of Lies

Monday September 7, 2009 at 01:52AM

Ridley Scott still has it.

Body of Lies is about a CIA agent trying to find a terrorist. In this day an age, the basic concept for the movie is not all that imaginative or original, but the delivery of the story was very well done.

The script is quite strong, with ever changing circumstances that are always driving the story forward. Coupled with solid performances by all the actors (not just the ones delivered by DiCaprio and Crowe, although they were excellent) which helped with the creation of interesting characters, this movie delivered some intriguing entertainment.

This one wouldn't be for those that lose track of characters and locations easily, and there are few off-putting scenes of violence, but if you can take it than I would recommend this movie.
