My God!

Rating: 1/10 (5 May 2007)

The film The Good Shepherd is about a man's life of corruption and is also about the start of the CIA. Edward Bell Wilson (Matt Damon) is a smart and handsome man who's got it all, and when he is asked to join the club in his University called The Skulls, he meets people with big connections, one of them being General Bill Sullivan (Robert De Niro) who wants Edward to be a spy in the war that is taking place at that moment in time. Edward also encounters Clover/Margaret Ann Russell (Angelina Jolie) who he gets pregnant on a one night stand and for his future plans and career in life he decides to marry her without any Love for her and the baby. Edward's brother gets involved and also later on in the film his Son does too in his Father example. The film shows what life is like being a spy and what effect it has on you and the people you love.
I did not personally enjoy this film one single bit, even though it had a great cast and a absolutely great Director/actor Robert De Niro. I felt as if nothing was put into this film, including Matt Damons talent as a actor, in the film he show no talent and in my opinion any one could play that role. Basically the film was pointless and boring it ends as it begins, no difference apart from the start of the CIA.
