Body of Lies

This weekend I saw the movie Body of Lies. The reason that I had gone to see the movie was because I had read an Entertainment Weekly article on the movie a few weeks ago. The article talked about how the movie mirrors some elements of current events, and it reccomended it to audiences.

I was really disappointed though. Even though the article had talked about how good the movie was, I really didn't like it. I felt that the main characters were ALWAYS in danger and you never really felt a payoff. It really bugged me when the terrorists were torturing the characters, I felt almost like stepping in, and I'm sure other viewers felt the same way. The article didn't mention this kind of frustration at all.
