Syriana












A multi-analogous story line in one. It's not entertainment material, it's thought provoking displaying the geopolitical decisions America makes to boost their economy and to drive their wealth and power to the heavens. The movie would be a bit disordered for an average viewer who is into conventional movies. This is no hollywood material, it is real and valid material with very subtle yet crafty political statements that would be very clear to those who have some knowledge of current world politics.

The lies that are primed, the greed it feeds on, 'you are either with us or you die' attitude, the victory of corruption, the power of deceitfulness and how it fueled on cruelty, the cost of lives, the fact that Americans aren't as simple or stupid or dumb as people may think. They are super power for a reason.














Flaws: they could have managed better with the poor arabic accents of some of the actors (evidently some were not arabic speakers at all). The length of the movie could have been a little shorter. Some parts of the movie was not Lebanon when it was meant to be so, the dialects were really off too at times. This is just a thought on how it could have been handled with perfection, nevertheless, these minor flaws doesn't discredit the backbone and concept of the movie itself. Well made with perfect dialogues and the script as a whole was something else. To many, it would be Anti-American. It's just dirty greed and corruption by some individuals who regrettably display a shameful face to the US public.

On a more positive note, it's a good wake up call for those Americans who are sleeping. I think it's only fair for the Americans to know what their country is doing. It's important not to ignore the series of events in history of the oil world, the US and the Gulf. It's quite scary how so many patriotic Americans pay a big price for Americans to continue living in peace. I felt so sick in my stomach at how the fatcat oil mongers play their filthy games to be larger than what they already are through greed, corruption and even assassination if must be.
