Another solid Damon-Greengrass effort

Lots of action, lots of conspiracy, lots of politics, and a good cast make for a decent film. Based loosely on real events (and I really stress the word loosely), Damon plays a soldier trying to uncover the real reasons for the Iraq war. As always, the Damon-Greengrass pairing is extremely strong, and there's a pretty good supporting cast as well (though Amy Ryan isn't really given much to do). It's important to keep paying attention, a lot of stuff goes down and it's easy to get lost, but all in all, it's decent.
