Lord of War… rrrrrrright.
Lord of War (USA, 2005)
I was told that is was a great movie.
One day, I will learn to listen to that voice in the back of my head that is telling me to follow my guts and not what people tell me. The preview had already told I didn’t want to see that film, but I watched anyway.
-sigh-
The idea and the message are both good ideas. Following the rise of a weapons dealer is interesting, and seeing how cold someone has to be to deal in that world is also very interesting. The problem is the main character played by Nicolas Cage, it is mostly the one he has played in many of his “action” movie. We have seen enough of it and its sad puppy eyes.
Not that everything is his fault, the movie can’t seem to find its ritgh pace. Could be an editing weakness or more likely in the directing, but I can’t say I have the pretention of knowing. Something just doesn’t feel right.
So, didn’t care for it much.
And that’s all I have to say about that.
Gog, more bored than entertained
