Critic Reviews
Chicago Sun-Times | Roger EbertAdd Critic to Favorites
W., a biography of President Bush, is fascinating. No other word for it.Read the full review
The New York Times | Manohla DargisAdd Critic to Favorites
The pleasure of Mr. Stone's work has never been located in restraint but in excess, a commitment to extremes that can drown out the world or, as in this film, give it newly vivid, hilarious and horrible form.Read the full review
USA Today | Claudia PuigAdd Critic to Favorites
The performances are good (some scarily realistic), and the movie is enjoyable to watch. But as a probing analysis of the 43rd president, it falls short.Read the full review

Film: Review:Green Zone
03/11/10 Though the last two entries in the Bourne franchise are as purely fictional as the first one, director Paul Greengrass brought an uncanny realism to the franchise, putting distance between Jason Bourne's spy adventures and the more synthetic escapism of James Bond. With Green Zone , Greengrass' latest collaboration with Bourne star Matt Damon, Greengrass makes a noble attempt to fuse the hard-hitting shaky-cam immediacy of his action movies with the scrupulous real-world politics of past docudramas like Bloody Sunday and United 93 . | The A.V.
