Syriana

The best movie among the recent ones. Don't miss this. I have only good things to say about this film. Sadly, my lack of knowledge in middle-east geography created some confusion for me. Otherwise, the attention to detail is outstanding. Amazing. The plot is also great. Some of you may not like the fact that CIA and some huge american corporations are shown in poor light. But there lies the tragedy of the entire movie. SPOILERS A brilliant CIA agent and a preogressive prince in middle-east are both victims to the corruption at all levels - in politics, CIA, Oil corporations and justice department. George Clooney and Matt Damon do a good job. The person who acts as the elder prince, the pakistani boy are also nice characters. We are also given a glimpse of how terrorism is bred in madrassas (the islamic schools).
