Re: Syriana

Pretty much any movie with George Clooney in it is worth passing on. The man’s an idiot, and a marginal actor at best.<br />
Agree. Just remove the "C" and you get a good picture of the man. ;)

For some of his big fans how about some classic Clooney:<br /><br />"I liked it better when there were only the big three news networks." (And just one point of view)<br /><br />Brilliant!

Did you know Clooney does not write his own movies. Just a thought.<br /><br />Ole Meathead was a righty and Archie a blooming liberal.

I was going to make a WARNING post about this movie a couple weeks ago. But was going to do it on a Non policital basis.<br /><br />Note: Ive only been to about 10 movies in the last 25 years. But we do rent them.<br /><br />We had not been out to a movie for a couple years and they are fun to go to so on the spur of the moment we decieded to go to one.<br /><br />Somewhere along the line I have seen George Clooney in something I liked. And that was the only reason we went to see it.<br /><br />I accept the fact that Hollywood is Anti-American and there is a 99% chance that if I Pay at the box office I will be supporting their cause.<br /><br />But that is not why I was going to post a Warning <br /><br /> People Forget about the money. Don't waste your time! <br />I can't tell you how many times I checked my watch while watching this BORING MOVIE<br /> <br />From the time it started until the credits were rolling, we were waiting for something/anything to happen!<br /><br />It was a total waste of time. <br /><br />My take on it... Mrs.Link felt the same way.

Re: Syriana

Good thing he doesn't write his own movies as my quote was attibuted to an interview. Can you imagine how stupid a movie written by someone with that insight into the news industry would be? It gives me the willies..<br /><br />But I bet this movie is equally as realistic.

Re: Syriana

Well.......... I haven't seen it yet. I am pretty shure though that what has been said about it true. Don't think for a minute that the big corps don't try to control other countries, heck they do a pretty good job controlling USA. Open your eyes and mind guys. Just because they believe it doesn't mean it isn't true.

Re: Syriana

I agree but acusing big business of anything involving government requires complicity.<br /><br />But we can all dream.

Wasn't Clooney in Ocean's 11? I thought that was a good movie. Ocean's 12 sucked, however.

If you are unhappy with the actions of a particular business, then buy them and change it... otherwise there is nothing you can do about it.

Re: Syriana

Now that most have commented, It was one of the most boring movies trying to explore corruption I have ever seen and I would recommend it to no one. Out of 10 it was a 1.<br /><br />You righties are dead on about this one. Blantly one sided with no redemable value.
