Great movie, perfectly directed although plot is lagging some elements imho.
Loved how satellite cameras blend in the whole photography!
Body of Lies was an enjoyable, if somewhat generic, espionage thriller. Acting was good, DiCaprio and Strong in particular, the production values were nice, and the plot was good enough. Solid movie and I got what I was expecting.
Body of Lies is an outstanding movie that features exceptional performances by its lead actors, Leonardo DiCaprio and Russell Crowe. The plot is engaging and has a realistic feel to it, making it even more thrilling. The film is an excellent example of a spy thriller, packed with plenty of action, suspense, and intrigue. The story keeps you on the edge of your seat as you follow the two protagonists navigate the complex web of espionage and deception. The direction and editing are top-notch, adding to the movie's intense atmosphere. In my opinion, it's one of the best thriller movies out there, and it's definitely one of my favorites.
Good acting, slow plot, not up to snuff for the great cast and renowned director.
Felt every minute of its runtime despite ratcheting up the tension throughout.
6.75/10
This film is definitely worth a watch as it builds the intensity the entire way through and it shows throughout the film that no one is innocent in a war, if you like movies about modern war and spies then give this one a watch.
And I don’t think I need to talk about the performances as both main actors are really great in their roles, the only thing I didn’t like about this film is the lacklustre ending and also the story does get a little convoluted at points.

The moat things i like on it
How he talks about the holy quran ^_^
The most beautiful thing about this film is how you can tell Leo's actual personality come through. A brilliant film on terrorism from a different perspective. Shocking ending and a few good plot twists along the way!

Like being a psychiatrist: The theory is interesting but then people start telling you about their problems.
An incredible cast (DiCaprio, Crowe, Mark Strong and Golshifteh Farahani (! :heart_eyes:)) directed by Ridley Scott looks great on paper -- and on screen, for much of the film, anyway. Scott's directing is especially on point in this tale of a CIA agent trying to negotiate the job, the DC bosses and the Middle Eastern locals.
Sadly, what starts off as an interesting and stylish look at espionage craft devolves into a rather dull case study.
