A masterpiece which relies on heavy suspense and a great story for maximum impact

Rating: 10/10 (1 February 2014)

Argo is such a brilliant film , that it will leave you spellbound and wanting for more . The films trick is that it captures its whole story with emotion and depth. , but aside that on the surface the story is extremely gripping , suspenseful , exciting and engaging. The merit purely lies on its story and the plot which is so gripping and exciting , it's impact will never be tarnished . The whole movie is suspenseful and tense especially towards the end . This movie might have been sugar-coated,commercialized and over-dramatized but it never fails to mention its impact. Some scenes are laugh out loud funny , others are subdued to reveal its characters , their detachment and sense if dread , owns the last category to make the movie so nail biting you will be biting through your knuckles. Alan Arkin and John Goodman deliver the best pefomances of the film , as the funny Hollywood experts. Bryan Cranston , Victor gaber and the other six people who live in his house give brilliant supporting pefomances . Ben Affleck gives a very restrained pefomance as the detached character , that fell a bit short , but his direction makes up for it . Great direction
