Body of lies is worth it? - Blu-ray Forum

DragonSarc · 10-05-2009, 12:07 AM

body of lies is $19.99 at walmart same as amazon but atleast no need to pay for shipping - is it worth it? havent seen the movie looks interesting.

If you like polticially based thrillers than it definitely is. If you are looking for strictly an action flick you will be dissapointed. Well acted, interesting story and what I think is a great ending.

i REALLY enjoyed the film but couldn't see myself ever watching it again. i sold my copy (reminds me, i have a few titles to remove from my collection).

Great movie and so far it has been replayed about a handful of times. Family and friends are always suprised as to how great the movie and it's quality is.

Great movie! Excellent picture and audio quality! The replay value is very good. And at $19.99, why wait?

Couldn't agree more

Awesome movie and Blu-ray.

As with all Ridley Scott movies this one is really really good, I personally haven't bought the bluray because i can't see myself wanting to watch it that much

But it's definetly a great movie, Dicaprio is amazing in it (and i'm not a huge leo fan)

My opinion would be to rent it first and then decide if you would want to watch it enough to justify owning it

Goat3000 · 10-05-2009, 01:29 PM

I watched it once so there is nothing wrong with it.
I thought it was good and the PQ / AQ is great but I doubt if I ever watch it again. I blind bought it when it came out.
Anyway, if your interested, I can send it out through my work and you should get it in a day or two (if your not too far i guess)......
Let me know.

Just watched this on Directv HD and its an excellent film with great acting! The more I see of Leonardo, the more he moves up the acting list!! Got Em!!

King K · 10-05-2009, 02:06 PM

Worth a rental at best for me.

Adam.C · 10-05-2009, 02:11 PM

The movie wasn't as good as I expected. I really like DiCaprio and Crowe, and the subject matter is something I find interesting, but it left me underwhelmed. I say rent first.

VDogger · 10-05-2009, 05:39 PM

I really liked this movie and after seeing the Toyota Prados in it I'm thinking of buying a Lexus SUV.

I'm not going to do that though, because I want to use the money for a downpayment on a house, but them SUVs looked damn good. It was like a commercial!

Good movie. If you can spare the $21 bucks or so I recommend you add it to your collection.

hardtosayx · 10-05-2009, 06:31 PM

I didn't like it. I also don't really like Russel Crowe to begin with, I couldn't pay attention at all.

repete66211 · 10-05-2009, 07:35 PM

I enjoyed the movie. However, my "buy" threshhold is pretty high. I won't pay for a movie unless it's either very inexpensive or else a really, really good movie. According to my perameters it's worth a rental but not a $20 purchase.

I agree with that! He's becoming a very talented actor.
