Body of Lies (2008)
8/10
DiCap adds another to his CV
25 November 2008
Body of Lies is Ridley Scotts return to the thriller genre and he shows us why he is just so dame good at the job he gets those big bucks for. Body of Lies on the surface might just seem like a run of the mill middle East thriller but actually by checking it out we see the amount of realism involved in it is what makes it stand out from the rest of the hyped up Hollywood blockbusters. Leo DiCap adds another fine performance onto his CV and proves why exactly he is one of the most talented actors to grace the screen , I can't believe this was the same squirt who I could not stand in Titanic! The film has a constant pace, there is action, suspense and drama . It maintains a constant twist and turn feel to it and has a lot of realism added to it . My only only complaint is that although it runs with the realism theme a little too much and thusly it drags on and ends up being longer then it should be. On the whole a good film put together by Scott, worth a check out especially if your a fan of thrillers.
