**I am big big fan of Leonardo DiCaprio, Russell Crowe and last but not the least Ridleyscotts. Ridley for me is one of the finest action drama genre director of alltime.**

**Body of Lies can’t make up its mind whether to be an all-outthriller or a political drama with relevant to say about Muslim fundamentalismand the American response. But it is directed by Ridley Scott, you obviouslygets crisply professional and stylish filmmaking.**
**With every minute that passes in Ridley Scott’s talkypolitical thriller, DiCaprio fit the role, forced to bring his game by two bigco-stars. A dense, complex political thriller that exposes hard truths. Scriptis overloaded and a bit repetitive. Scott makes movies, but jolted byconcussive interludes the story finally slips into gear for a gripping final 30minutes. Stay for the most evil finger-torture in Scott’s work. It’s not at allfor kids. Scott always makes movie for men, hard hitting.**
**Sometimes a mad Hollywood producer in the aviator. Sometimesa smuggler in blood diamond. A under cop depressed obsessed, depressed but stillstiff like rock in departed. And here CIA operative sent to Jordan to kill a terrorist leader who’s igniting a campaignof global bombings. DiCaprio speaks perfect Arabic. He blends effortlessly intothe blitzed streets of Iraq. Naturally he gets into the character in all hismovies same for this movie. A his beard is growing he is also growing as anactor who will be in the league of Pacino, DE Niro, Crowe .**
**And to say aboutcrowe’s acting will be like old wine which gets more and more good with passingtime.**
**Leonardo DiCaprio plays Roger Ferris, a highly professional, choosen specially because of his proficiency in Arabic, he plays field agent who is hooked up to Ed Hoffman(Russell Crowe), his CIA boss in Washington. Ed is constantly on the phone toRoger . He thinks he knows it all, andhe can certainly see all by impression of high-tech satellite exploration. Thenearer Roger gets to his target, the more Ed puts him in danger.

**RockNRollastar Mark Strong, burning with dangerous screen presence as the shady Jordanianintelligence chief matching understanding with DiCaprio. Ed’s feels that doanything to achieve your aims, while Roger knows that certain things are not rite. The Syrian head of intelligence is there trying to give him the help he needs.**
**Where the script goes weak the performances of Leonardo andMark Strong fills it.**
**One part I totally felt unnecessary is the romance betweenRoger and a nurse. Crowe, put on weight for the film is not just like passingby.**
**Strong is particularly good as the Syrian Jordanian intelligence chief whotells Roger that the one thing he must never do is to lie to him, while a tenseDiCaprio goes through his difficult times with commendable passion.**
**So the summary is strong performances great direction, complicated script which goes lose here and there. But one thing is sure if onewill see movie with microscope than there may be lot of loops but still movieis great action darma, you will not yawn even once. Go for it.**
