I’m not sure why I rented this movie, more than likely because it starred Tom Hanks. It isn’t really my type of movie. Needless to say, it wasn’t after I watched it either.
That being said, it was still a good movie if this WAS your type of movie. Very educational and it gave you a lot of information. Tom Hanks did a superb job as always and I really like Seymour Hoffman who played the CIA agent who assisted Tom’s character is helping defeat the Russians. I have seen him in quite a few movies over the past few months and I like him more and more.
Julia Roberts did an OK job, her role from what I can tell after I researched her character was played out well and she did look like her to a certain degree. She was quite beautiful in this movie, but she just didn’t catch my attention as she usually does.
If you like war history, this is a great movie to watch, I will give you that and the biggest thing out of it; as always the US was the last to react. It took a civilian to get the job done - go figure! Anyone else surprised by that one?
Again, if you like history, I recommend you rent this one, if not you can pass!
