Got back from Body of Lies. I'm not going to lie, I thought it was an above-average generic thriller.
Russell Crowe in perhaps his worst role yet because it's all done over the phone.
DiCaprio seemed stuck between Departed and Blood Diamond character wise. And I think that hurt.
Scott's direction was at least better than American Gangster, but a bag of poo was better than that.
In all, it was forgettable. It was generic to the nth degree. It was worth my price of admission: free. I'm not so sure I'd pay top dollar to see it.
