The other day I went to see “Body of Lies<\/a>“.\u00a0 I know that some people just can’t take the same actor playing similar roles in two consequtive films – in this case Leonardo DiCaprio being an undercover agent – but if you can get past that, you are probably to enjoy the film.\u00a0 At least I did.<\/p>\n

Yes, it had enough cliches and stereotypes and all, but it was also somehow fresh.\u00a0 It wasn’t all that predictable, and it carried a good mix global propaganda with personal drama and plain old action.\u00a0 Good acting, good shooting and explosion, twisty story, nice character development, nice camera work – all make it into a worthy film.\u00a0 If you have a chance to catch it on the big screen – use it.\u00a0 You’ll get some extra.<\/p>\n

Overall, a 7 out of 10<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"\n
