The DiCaprio special: Body of lies


Movie number three , Dicaprio's body of lies is different from the previous two, it was released among much hype with the ever classic russel crowe in the lead along with him with the movie having its roots in CIA conspiracy in the middle east you go expecting a ala Jason bourne scenario but thats not what you get.. its a very different movie ....with a more patient build up and more conversations.

Here a bit to get you started with -
A CIA operative, Roger Ferris, uncovers a lead on a major terrorist leader suspected to be operating out of Jordan. When Ferris devises a plan to infiltrate his network, he must first win the backing of cunning CIA veteran Ed Hoffman and the collegial, but perhaps suspect, head of Jordanian intelligence. Although ostensibly his allies, Ferris questions how far he can really trust these men without putting his entire operation--and his life--on the line.

The movie builds itself more on dialogue than action much like tom cruise's Lions for lambs unlike which the body of lies succeds in such story telling. There is not an over all lack of action as there are some high octane action but most of the screen time is gulped up by Caprio and Crowe who are at each others throats from the Start till finish of the movie , its their vibe which keeps the movie going.For all those interseted in middle east scenario might wanna get a look at this.

Genres: Thriller and Adaptation
Running Time: 2 hr. 8 min.
Release Date: October 10th, 2008 (wide)
MPAA Rating: R for strong violence including some torture, and for language throughout.

Final word
A must watch for all Caprio and Crowe fans to see both of them duel it out , See it when your really in the mood of the movie , dont watch for the sake of it and you lose the plot of the movie .
