dull, uninspired, one dimensional

Rating: 4/10 (29 May 2006)

That's just my opinion. Most people seem to think otherwise... I felt that the film was a complete letdown with the exception of some of the acting and the use of some good documentary footage. I think a documentary would have been more interesting... the screenplay is a bore... none of the emotional elements are very emotional... it is very dry - which can be good, but it is not good in this case because it just becomes boring.
I found Clooney's role in the film to be rather pointless as well, and in fact almost irritating... his presence distracts you from the film which is hard enough to watch as it is!
As a political statement the film as fine, as a work of art it is a bit of a flop.
