This movie kept you thinking throughout the entire film and thats what I loved about it...It made you htink that maybe the U.S goverment was actually doing things like this.

Good Movie to watch on DVD...no point of seeing it on the big screen, as there is very little action... save your $$, rent it when it comes out.

4 stars, they lost the connection between the Senator and his daughter, that was so well done in the original, especially when he tells the mother off.

This was an excellent movie. Denzel Washington was amazing, he is such a brilliant actor. This movie is one of this year best. Great cast; suspensful movie.This movie is worth ***** and is a must see

Yet another left-wing propaganda vehicle from hollywood. The story was obviously translated from the current political conspiracies used to demonize the sitting president (substitute Manchurian Global for Haliburton, the "mindless" candidate controlled by the evil military-industrial complex, etc, etc). A stilted performance from Meryl Streep will probably earn her an oscar from the far-out hollywood community (just as the loony propaganda of Michael Moore was awarded the golden palm). Come on people - stop insulting our intelligence.

I thought it was well acted, and thought provoking. Denzil Wahington is as always superb. As far as the plot goes. Could it happen? Alas is it happening, via USA? Questions worth pondering as the movie unfolds.

Good entertainment. However, there are some holes in this movie, and a few areas or story line that needed to be further developed and/or explained. Best line whilst viewing this movie with a friend went something like: Perhaps this isn`t real, and we are actually still in Kuwait. We`d both just left Kuwait in June. We just looked at each other in the dark. Too funny!
