Lord of War

Good movie

trash

The case came broken.

The film is one of the greatest of all times, but there are no extras whatsoever on this blu-ray release. If they had included at least a commentary track, I would have rated this five stars. Given the low price I would still urge you to buy this. If you are a fan of Blow or Thank You For Smoking, then you will definitely want to add this one to your collection.

Cant think of a bad Nicolas Cage movie. This one is among his best. Man decides to become an arms (gun) dealer to foreign interests. Man is very good at what he does. U.S. government doesnt like the competition and decides to shut him down (Ethan Hawke good as agent). Man prevails but at a great cost. Moral of the story, the government can do whatever it wants. Legal or illegal, moral or immoral. But if an individual decides he or she wants to get in on the action, well, ..........

Amazing movie fast shipping

i watched this movie to kill time, thinking it was a shoot em up hollywood flick. instead, this is an original idea, disturbing, satirical, and very well done plot that sticks to you the day after you see it. the trophy wife who happily mooches off her millionaire husband, and then pulls the morality gig is a classic. where were her questions about her husbands (nicholas cage) line of work during the years when she spent his money? the lame good for nothing brother who is hooked on cocaine, only to clean up, find a girlfriend, and get ready to buy a business...but, where to get the money? oh yes, a little bit of gunrunning, as long as it is ethical, clean, and moral should do it, until he sees people hacked to death and ready to be slaughtered. then, the morality comes on, and manifests itself in a classic ill just blow it all up outburst. this one is a must see for all those folks jaded by the recent usual hollywood fare.

Reminds you what exactly makes war so horrible-- and how entwined it is even in first world countries. Brilliant acting all around honestly, with certain lines hitting you like a truck. I recommend watching for sure if you can.

The trailer for this movie makes it appear to be something it is not; a semi serious semi funny action adventure movie. This movie is all serious with very few places to smile. All of the cast does a good job as far as I can tell. Its not as violent as you would think, but it certainly has its moments. Overall Its pretty good, but just a little too hopeless and depressing for me. The best line in the movie: always remember son, there is something above you.

An exciting, twisting look at the underground arms industry. Pros -Cage does a wonderful job playing the nonplussed Lord of War. He is restrained and doesnt fall into the goofy cage category of some of his recent films -Niccols script is not overly political, but still touches on the situations and motivations that drive arms dealing -gorgeous cinematography, with a standout sequence through a drug tinged city at night Cons -Cage at times seems too calm with his narration delivery
