Ratings and reviews

The amount of lies poured into the creation of this movie is appalling. An insult to all the parties that were affected by it's tragedy. Disgusting. I guess the 5star blind reviewing on Google play is understandable. Who else would pay 20 dollars to watch media fed bullshit other than your average overfed murica chanter...

To think all this insanity was caused by his recklessness in Iraq! To think our CIA taught Saddam all he knew, because the U.S. wanted the Car overthrown and then go and annihilate zillions more on him, than he did in Iraq. AND NOW! We are responsible for the whole disruption in the Middle East! To think we keep the U.S. cowering in fear. The U.S.A. as the world's greatest war monger makes me sad and ASHAMED. Do these smirking politicians know the militia and the civilians we kill are REAL PEOPLE?

By the time the movie is over, you will feel as though you sat there for 13 hours. Film does not do the factual event justice--it's a very "Hollywood" treatment of something that is actually quite a serious incident. Contains way too many Hollywood one-liners and clichés. Don't be fooled by other reviews and their overly patriotic outlook on the film. Want to see a good film revolving around an embassy incident? Watch Argo.
