Has anyone seen this yet? I'll be seeing it on Friday and can't wait. I saw the trailer when I went to see Bourne Ultimatum, so add that with my interest in the Middle East and my love for Chris Cooper as an actor which means I can't be anything but excited. :thumbsup:

i could care less about a movie which has jennifer gardener working as the head of intelligence for the cia or whatever she is, and that maybe irrational, but everything else about the movie twists my nipples in the wrong direction

I saw this on friday, the story was good but I couldn't get over the camera shaking for the entire movie. I can understand during the action sequences, but when they are sitting in a board room there is no need for it other than to make me motion sick and dizzy.

Peter Berg, please stick to getting beaten up by Damon Waynes.

a lot of movies do this handheld camera for no reason other than it's a popular style... the medium should always be specific to the story telling... friday night lights did that, and all it does is numb people to handheld cameras

:shake: respect the medium people!

I heard about the camera shaking. That's no good.

Yes, it was excellent. Very topical and extremely well done.

This movie doesn't look very good to me. Maybe just because I can't stand Jaime Foxx.

I can't believe you haven't seen it. One of the absolute best movies of 2005.

Trust me, it's about as far away from Crash as you can get.
