“Body of Lies” Movie Review
“Body of Lies” Plot Summary
Roger Ferris uncovers a lead on a major terrorist leader suspected to be operating out of Jordan.
The most entertaining CIA thriller of 2008.
Next to The Good Shepard(2006), Body of Lies is also a realistic look at the spy life. And you see it’s not the life that James Bond depicts it to be. I look the way it combines a thriller and the realism of the war. It was wonderfully well put together
A C.I.A. operative Roger Ferris(Leonardo Di Caprio) is on assignment in Jourdan in hopes to flush out a terrorist, Roger gets his orders from Ed Hoffman(Russell Crow) his cocky boss. But after things don’t go according to plan, Roger and Ed think up a new plan to flush out the terrorist. By making him think that somebody new is trying to muscle in on his territory. The stakes begin to get too high for Roger, and will this come crashing down on him?It was masterfully well directed by Sir Ridley Scott, he did every moment and angle perfectly. The way Sir Ridley Scott could do it so perfectly. Not to mention it was also brilliantly acted by Russell Crow and Leonardo Di Caprio. There are moments that will leave you bewildered and captivated.

Very well done
This an excellent film in many ways. Leo Dicaprio never fails as an actor and I feel he never has. (More than likely never will) My favorite feat from his acting is that he, like John Malcovich, knows how to swear. I swear most people I know cannot curse because you cant just curse to curse. He puts emotion into his dialog which includes cursing which he does. Now getting back to the movie, it was very good and very well written. Russel Crowe does an outstanding job as well. Again Ridley Scott amazes another audience. The one thing that bothered me though was that I felt as though the U.S. was getting slammed in a way. I’m not going to say how because that would give some things away. Just watch the film for yourself. I could be just a paranoid patriot but whatever. It’s great, watch it, love it.

A very realistic look on terrorism and also very entertaining
Russell Crowe says it best, ‘What we’re dealing with here is potential a global war that requires constant diligence in order to suppress.’ The U.S. and other nations are at war with terrorism. ‘Body of Lies’ demonstrates this very realistically, but also maintains as a great action thriller. The bad guy is Al-Saleem (Alon Aboutboul), an Islamist mastermind who devises plans to attack European and American cities. CIA operative Roger Ferris (Leo Dicaprio) is sent into the Middle East to track him down with the help of his boss in Langley, Ed Hoffman. The uniqueness of this film is that it is told through two different perspectives, Ed’s and Roger’s. Whenever we see Ed in the film, he is either eating, trying to take care of his kids, and in the satellite room, while watching Ferris via satellite or talking to on a headphone. Crowe turns a rather boring role into something that is funny and amusing too watch. He delivers one line after another fluently and with a bit of humor. This is unusual for Crowe since he always plays a touch guy, but nevertheless he’s excellent. As with Dicaprio, he lights up the screen, proving himself to be a very talented actor. Since the release of ‘The Aviator’ he seems to be getting better and better in his roles. No doubt he’ll get at least a Golden Globe nom for his performance in this, portraying a man who is drawn between a love interest (Golshifteh Farahani) and his job, between whether to trust his Middle Eastern associate against terrorism Hani (Mark Strong) and his somewhat unreliable boss in Langley. Director Ridley Scott tells the story uniquely with his combination of different camera shots and angles. In the action sequences, the camera is shaky, giving an intense and chaotic to the film as well as the intense medium and close up shots in the scenes of dialog. I personally found one of the most well done scenes to be towards the end where Dicaprio is captured by the terrorists. Not only is the mood of the scene dramatic by the low key lighting, creating deep shadows, but also by the well-placed shots that capture the magnificence of Dicaprio’s performance, as well as Alon Aboutboul’s. This scene reminds me how much people take religion so seriously that they are willing to kill in the name of a God. As Dicaprio says, ‘you’ve twisted’ the understanding of the Koran, which the terrorists in the Middle East have done and are doing. The only downside to this film is the length and somewhat of the structure of the action. The first half of the film has a lot great foot-on-foot chases and some cool explosions and gun battles, but the second half falls into the category of an espionage thriller, little action, more mystery. This is not a bad thing, but I found this rather odd and dull, making my butt itch a little in my seat. Overall though, ‘Body of Lies’ is another masterwork by Ridley Scott, although like his other moviesthere is graphic violence, including a very, very unpleasant torture scene.
