Review of Lord of War (2005) by Annelies S — 26 Sep 2009
"Selling weapons is like selling vacuum cleaners. I sold communist-made bullets to fascists.".
Maybe there is truth in this movie? The basic evil will never be caught. This weapon dealer played by Nicolas Cage seems to be a nice guy but he doesn't seem to share the opinion of Jack Valentine played by Ethan Hawke.
The movie opens by following a bullet from production in a factory until it ends in someone's head. Very impressive opening scene. But from that moment on the quality of the movie is reduced to a boring movie. The soundtrack is a good one though.
Not really a recommendation.
