About this movie

Big oil means big money. Very big money. And that fact unleashes corruption that stretches from Houston to Washington to the Mideast and ensnares industrialists, princes, spies, politicos, oilfield laborers and terrorists in a deadly, deceptive web of move and countermove.

Ratings and reviews

Really great movie for time-poor people. Extends your perception of time by about double. I watched the first hour and thought 2 hours must have passed. Seriously, though, it has a rambling structure with enough plot-redundant scenes that also aren't particularly entertaining that I ended up significantly bored by the midpoint.

Great movie, very relevant
