Choice #1: Roulette sequences

Rating: Null/10 (11 December 2007)

#1: I think that the director was trying to show how the united states decides how to start wars or how and when to enter them. I think he was showing how the U.S. enters a war either purely for personal benefit or to get out of a tight knit situation. Like when they were trying to get the three bullets in line for the chamber of the gun, I think that resembles the United States tricking countries into benefiting us. In my opinion it also goes hand in hand with our country's immaturity when it comes to decision making abilities. Of course it seems as though we hardly think things through very well before acting on them. The roulette scenes in the movie are, I think, some of the most gripping scenes, they really kept me on the edge of my seat and also feeling quite uncomfortable.
