Green Zone is the new Iraq war action thriller from director Paul Greengrass, starring Matt Damon, Greg Kinnear and Amy Ryan. While I wouldn't call this movie anti-American, I was surprised by just how critical it was of the American government and military. It's not like there's much to praise about the current Iraq war, but I was more or less expecting the director of United 93 to deliver something that might have been a bit more blindly patriotic. The movie itself, politics aside, is entertaining. Well paced with few, if any, slow parts. The action sequences are mostly realistic, though some of the hand-held digital camera work might bother some viewers. Rating: 82%
