SunnyHello Nice effects though.

Cleveronix A different way of telling a story

Brendon Jones It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.

Jerrie It's a good bad... and worth a popcorn matinée. While it's easy to lament what could have been...

nikhilrampal This film started well but failed to captivate me. The closing action sequences film being shot in the dark with shaky cam were painful to sit through. Its no surprise this film lost money.Im afraid this is a rare miss from paul greengrass

Floated2 Green Zone has been classified as a rare miss for both Matt Damon and Paul Greengrass. We remember when Green Zone was first released showing the trailers, it was relatively hyped up and described as a "Bourne film in war". The film wasn't received as well as the first three Bourne films and has flopped at the box office. Within the story, It's 2003, where we see Matt Damon plays (Chief Warrant Officer Roy Miller), head of a WMD-finding unit in Baghdad which keeps coming up empty at all the alleged sites. Suspecting bad leads, Miller goes maverick in his attempts to trace their original source, raising eyebrows and fighting the received orthodoxy. With all we know about the wool-pulling to make the case for war, it's a kick to follow a main character on the ground who smells a rat this early, wary of the stalling tactics the Pentagon are offering instead of conclusive proof.Overall Green Zone doesn't grad the attention as one would have hoped for. It has its moments but in comparison to the Bourne films, Green Zone doesn't stack up and comes up short. Also compared to the Hurt Locker, in which we can see some similarities but the Hurt Locker feels as much of a more superior film.

blanche-2 "Green Zone" is a 2010 film starring Matt Damon and directed by Paul Greengrass based on the book by Rajiv Chandrasekaran.Matt Damon plays Roy Miller, a Chief Warrant Officer who in 2003 is sent to Iran to find weapons of mass destruction.He can't find any.The search for WMD was in part instigated by the Pentagon's man in Baghdad, Poundstone (Greg Kinnear). When no weapons are found, Miller wonders why the intel is so bad. A Wall Street Journal reporter, Lawrie Dayne (Amy Ryan) tells Miller that Poundstone had secret talks in Jordan with someone with the code name Magellan, who claims there are weapons. Miller endeavors to get at the truth.Very interesting story with lots of action, and a good premise. I confess I haven't read the book so I have no idea how much is based on fact.The acting was very good. The director used a hand-held camera for some of the action scenes. I'm like another person who reviewed on this site. It doesn't really bother me.This film didn't do well at the box office; in fact, it didn't even break even. I know sometimes seeing a film in the theater is a different experience, but seeing it as a rental, it was good.

grantss Pretty lame. Very contrived, implausible and blatantly left-wing. Starts off well enough, but the more the plot was revealed, the more convoluted, yet ultimately predictable, it became.Direction is fairly poor. Paul Greengrass thinks that waving a camera around makes a film more realistic. It might, but it also makes the audience nauseous, and bored. The action sequences go on forever, and one chase scene had me reaching for the fast forward button (and even then it was boring).Matt Damon does his standard action-man routine, very reminiscent of the Bourne series, and does it well. Greg Kinnear does his usual B-grade bad guy act. Brendon Gleeson and Amy Ryan are solid in their roles.Such a good build-up, wasted on political correctness and left-wing sympathies.
