Movie Reviews of No End in Sight
Movie Review: Devastating expose of war's incompetence
Summary: 5 Stars
I cannot too highly recommend this DVD. Even ardent supporters of the war will find it hard to stomach all the incompetence. This is not a leftist screed; all the people interviewed are government or military officials who end up nauseated by the blundering of the Bush administration. Prepare to be outraged!
Summary of No End in Sight
The first film of its kind to chronicle the reasons behind Iraq s descent into guerilla war warlord rule criminality and anarchy NO END IN SIGHT is a jaw-dropping insider s tale of wholesale incompetence recklessness and venality. Based on over 200 hours of footage the film provides a candid retelling of the events following the fall of Baghdad in 2003 by high ranking officials such as former Deputy Secretary of State Richard Armitage Ambassador Barbara Bodine (in charge of Baghdad during the Spring of 2003) Colonel Lawrence Wilkerson former Chief of Staff to Colin Powell and General Jay Garner (in charge of the occupation of Iraq through May 2003) as well as Iraqi civilians American soldiers and prominent analysts. NO END IN SIGHT examines the manner in which the principal errors of U.S. policy the use of insufficient troop levels allowing the looting of Baghdad the purging of professionals from the Iraqi government and the disbanding of the Iraqi military largely created the insurgency and chaos that engulf Iraq today.System Requirements:Running Time: 102 minutesFormat: DVD MOVIE Genre:?DOCUMENTARIES/MISC. Rating:?NR UPC:?876964001021 Manufacturer No:?10102A staggering portrait of arrogance and incompetence, the documentary No End in Sight avoids the question of why the U.S. invaded Iraq in 2003, choosing instead to focus on the war's aftermath--and meticulously examine the chain of decisions that led Iraq into a grotesque state of lawlessness and civil war. Drawing from interviews with top generals, administration officials, journalists, and soldiers who were in the thick of the war itself, No End in Sight lays out a gripping story, as suspenseful as any Hollywood movie, accompanied by terrifying footage of firefights and explosions more vivid than any special effects. Unfortunately, there is no happy ending. If the documentary has a weakness, it's the shortage of voices trying to defend the administration policies (perhaps unsurprisingly, policymakers like Dick Cheney, Donald Rumsfeld, and Paul Wolfowitz declined to be interviewed). But the testimony (presented by administration insiders and officials in Iraq, both military and civilian) argues that, despite contrary analysis and experienced advice against its actions, the top brass of the Bush administration made decisions (that aggravated already existing problems and created devastating new ones. No End in Sight builds its case one voice at a time and avoids the grandstanding that undercuts Michael Moore's work; instead, the gradual accumulation of simple facts--presented with weary resignation, earnest outrage, and restrained anger--results in a compelling condemnation of one of the worst blunders the U.S. has ever made. --Bret Fetzer
