Review of The Fog of War (2003) by Jim S — 22 Jul 2008
Saw some flicks over the weekend...
[i]Bad Santa[/i]- definitely the work of some warped minds. Good offensive fun.
[i]50 First Dates[/i] - Cute little romcom. A kinder, gentler Sandler. Didn't really care for the way it ended, but meh...
[i]Monster - [/i]Charlize Theron alone makes the movie worth watching. It truly is an exceptional performance, right up there, in my mind, with Brando in [i]Last Tango in Paris[/i]. But, outside of that, the movie's pretty pedestrian.
[i]Field of Dreams[/i] - Simply one of the best movies made. A magical ride about hopes, desires, mending family bonds, and baseball.
[i]The Fog of War[/i] - Superb documentary from America's best documentary filmmaker, Errol Morris. A brutal look at the life and wars of Robert McNamara, as told by the man himself. Unflinching and honest. This is a movie that could do more for any anti-war movement than Michael Moore and his blatant heartstring tugging and shaky half-truths. Go see this one right away.
All I got today... only half-an-hour for lunch.
