During the U.S.-led occupation of Baghdad in 2003, Chief Warrant Officer Roy Miller (Damon) and his team of Army inspectors were dispatched to find weapons of mass destruction believed to be stockpiled in the Iraqi desert. Rocketing from one booby-trapped and treacherous site to the next, the men search for deadly chemical agents but stumble instead upon an elaborate cover-up that inverts the purpose of their mission.

Hey Peter,Here is a short review of my screening Green Zone. In all honesty, I’m not sure a re-edit can save this movie. It’s bogged down with political messages and heavy handed approaches to proving Greengrass’ points. And I think that the shaking, hand held camera style of shooting will hurt this movie. There is a lot of it.
I honestly had a hard time writing this review because I didn’t care for this movie at all. Let’s hope they can turn this boat around somehow.

~ Sauce_When you set out to make a movie about the 2003-20?? Iraq War, you’re jumping into very dicey waters. While most people will agree going into Iraq was a bad idea, bringing up the subject, no matter what side you take, elicits strong reactions. Part of the problem? The war is still happening and it is the polarizing topic of this generation. It is a very complicated and tense situation. However that hasn’t stopped Paul Greengrass from flying feet first into a subject that he clearly has a point of view on. Not to mention his polarizing approach to filming action sequences is there in the form of lots of hand held shots.

Some were hoping that due to his handling of sensitive material in United 93, he would be able to make a film about Iraq that wasn’t biased or slanted. Greengrass had even stated that his hope would be that people could see an action film that was set in Iraq without politics getting in the way. Sadly that is not the case. Time and again the political opinions and melodramatic speeches override the story and muddy the film’s goals.
