MCT:May 13, 2008Great movie. Philip Seymour Hoffman once again shows that he is one of the better actors of this generation

Takes liberties with the timeline in order to focus on characters, which is what Nichols does best. Hanks shows that he is still one of Hollywood's greatest assets, while Hoffman nearly steals the show, proving yet again that he has a great career ahead of him. Even Julia Roberts, who also appeared in Nichols previous film 'Closer', shows that she is still capable of taking on a challenge and holding her own. The marketing of 'Charlie Wilson's War' can largely be blamed for its theatre run failure, advertising it more as a comedy than anything. I suppose for some people i.e. Americans, the argument that the film hints at near the end may hit a nerve, but I certainly had no problem with it. It will really come down to personal opinion, but it doesn't hurt the rest of the picture and leaves some room for discussion. Overall it's an extremely entertaining film that is well written (with Aaron Sorkin how could it not be?), well cast, and well executed.

MCT:May 12, 2008This was a good movie. I found it very interesting. I think it would have helped had i known who Charlie Wilson was before i saw the movie.

MCT:May 12, 2008I loved this movie! not quite sure why...but they did use the F word a little more than neccisary. But very realistic (or course) and a really fun movie to watch! ^_^

December 2007 (Director: Mike Nichols) This is good movie making! Wonderful performance. Amazing performance by Philip Seymour Hoffman (Twister). I BELIEVED these characters & believed IN them. Ned Beatty stars as Defense Committee Chairman & Julia Roberts as a religious anti-communist lobbyist. Covert operations, good ol' boys & anti-communism.
