This is a geo political thriller about oil companies and the Middle East. It had a stellar cast, but was a little hard to follow on first viewing. I want to watch it again with Mr. Hooves as it is more his cup of tea in the genre department.

the cast which included, Clooney, Matt Damon, Christopher Plummer, William Hurt, Amanda Peet and Chris Cooper, to name a few.

watch it again and understand it better.

is outstanding.

I am not sure if I recommend it or not. I feel like I need to see it again to recommend it and make that decision. I could not follow everything that was happening during the first watching of the movie. It is Clooney's Oscar winning performance - that is what prompted me to get it at the used book place.
