Movie Reviews of Body of Lies (Two-Disc Edition + BD Live) [Blu-ray]

Movie Review: "Body Of Lies" is excellent!
Summary: 5 Stars

"Body Of Lies" is excellent! This is how the story goes: A CIA operative, Roger Ferris, uncovers a lead on a major terrorist leader suspected to be operating out of Jordan. When Ferris devises a plan to infiltrate his network, he must first win the backing of cunning CIA veteran Ed Hoffman and the collegial, but perhaps suspect, head of Jordanian intelligence. Although ostensibly his allies, Ferris questions how far he can really trust these men without putting his entire operation--and his life--on the line.

The cast led by Academy Award Nominee Leonardo DiCaprio (as Roger Ferris) & Academy Award Winner Russell Crowe (as Ed Hoffman) is excellent! This is the second time that DiCaprio and Crowe teamed up, the first being "The Quick And The Dead" (1995). The directing by Ridley Scott (who also produced with his production company, Scott Free, which produced said films in this sentence) (in his fourth go-round with Crowe, their fifth teaming will possibly be the upcoming "Nottingham" (2009), he also directed "American Gangster" (2007, also with Crowe and fellow Academy Award Winner Denzel Washington), "Gladiator" (2000, also with Crowe), "A Good Year" (2006, also with Crowe), "Hannibal" (2001), "Black Hawk Down" (2001), "Kingdom Of Heaven" (2005), & "G.I. Jane" (1997) is excellent! The screenplay (which is based on David Ignatius' novel) by William Monahan (who also wrote the screenplay to "Kingdom Of Heaven", "The Departed" (2006, for which he won the Oscar for Best Adapted Screenplay and which also starred DiCaprio), & the upcoming "Edge Of Darkness" (2009, which stars Mel Gibson & Ray Winstone, who worked with DiCaprio and Monahan on "The Departed") is excellent!

The cinematography by Alexander Witt (he directed "Resident Evil: Apocalypse" (2004), he also did second unit director work on films, such as the upcoming "The Prince Of Persia: The Sands Of Time" (2010) & "The Taking Of Pelham 123" (2009, which also stars Washington & directed by Ridley's brother, Tony) (also director of photography: second unit), he also did "American Gangster" (also director of photography: second unit), "Casino Royale" (2006, also director of photography: second unit), "Pirates Of The Caribbean: The Curse Of The Black Pearl" (2003, also director of photography: second unit), "The Italian Job" (2003, also director of photography: second unit), "Daredevil" (2003, also director of photography: second unit), "XXX" (2002, also director of photography: second unit), "The Bourne Identity" (2002, also director of photography: second unit), "Black Hawk Down" (also director of photography: second unit), "Hannibal" (also director of photography: second unit), "Remember The Titans (2000, which also starred Washington and was also director of photography: second unit), & "Gladiator" (also director of photography: second unit), he also was a camera operator: second unit on "Thelma & Louise" (1991, which was also directed by Scott), & was a camera operator on "Black Rain" (1989, which was also directed by Scott) is excellent!

The music by Marc Streitenfeld (who also did the music to "American Gangster" & "A Good Year") is excellent! The film editing by Pietro Scalia (who also did the film editing to "American Gangster", "Black Hawk Down" (for which he won the Oscar for Best Film Editing), "Hannibal", "Gladiator", & "G.I. Jane", he also did the film editing to "The 11th Hour" (2007, which DiCaprio produced, wrote, and narrated) & "The Quick And The Dead") is excellent! The casting by Jina Jay (who also did the casting to "A Good Year", "Kingdom Of Heaven", & the upcoming "The Lovely Bones" (2009) & "Nottingham") & Avy Kaufman (who also did the casting to "American Gangster" & "Baby Mama" (2008) is excellent! The costume design by Janty Yates (who also did the costume design to "American Gangster", "Gladiator" (for which she won the Oscar for Best Costume Design), "Hannibal", & "Kingdom Of Heaven") is excellent!

The production design by Arthur Max (who also did the production design to "American Gangster", "Black Hawk Down", "Gladiator", "Kingdom Of Heaven", & "G.I. Jane", he also did the production design to "Panic Room" (2002) & "Seven" (1995) and also the upcoming "Nottingham") is excellent! The art direction by Charley Beal (supervising art director) (who also did the art direction to the upcoming "Milk" (2008), & "Invincible" (2006), also was an assistant art director to "American Gangster" & "The Village" (2004), Robert Cowper (who also did the art direction to the upcoming "The Prince Of Persia: The Sands Of Time", "The Bourne Ultimatum" (2007), "A Good Year", & "Kingdom Of Heaven" he also was an assistant art director on "Spy Game" (2001, which was directed by Ridley's brother, Tony), Peter J.

The set decoration by Sonja Klaus (who also did the set decoration to "American Gangster", "Kingdom Of Heaven", & the upcoming "Nottingham") & Nancy Nye (who also did the set decoration to "Fracture" (2007) & "Matchstick Men" (2003, which was also directed by Scott) is excellent!

This is an excellent action-thriller that keeps you thinking and your heart racing and on the edge of your seat. This is another hit for Ridley Scott, Leonardo DiCaprio, & Russell Crowe.
