Green Zone


This movie bored me quite extensively, to the point where I almost fell asleep. It's so simple-minded and there's really nothing that engaged me like there was in similar movies (like Body of Lies, a movie I enjoyed quite a bit more). There's nothing wrong with the acting or direction, the movie just lacked surprises and the action was surprisingly little for all of the hoopla about it being directed by Paul Greengrass. I'm disappointed and can now see why the movie did fairly little business at the box office. Maybe I'm spoiled after watching The Hurt Locker earlier this year, but this movie felt out of date.
