But before he can do that, he must get riddled with bullets, run for his life, get bitten by diseased dogs and fall in love with a Palestinian nurse.Ĭlash of cultures, did we say? Nah! This nice American can not only speak Arabic, quote the Hadith, he also likes to sip tea with his Palestinian girlfriend in hostile territory. The plan is complicated by its being a secret from Hani and by Rogers attraction to a local nurse. When Hani rebukes Eds demand that Jordan allow the Americans to use one of Jordans double agents, Roger and Ed hatch a plan to bring the cleric to them. He tries to set up a parallel terrorist network to draw out the real anarchists from their lair. The Americans are in pursuit of a cleric who leads a group placing bombs all over Europe. This CIA agent is hot on the heels of Qaeda mastermind, Al-Saleem and devices a novel plan to nab the terrorist, after all measures to infiltrate the gang fail. While Crowe is the strategist, based in Washington DC, sending instructions on a cellphone, while taking his kids for basketball, DeCaprio is the action hero who enters the battlefield in the infamous axis of evil. Body of Lies will be sold as a serpentine mind-bender, which it partly is. Now, that's not just so bad, specially when you have Leornado DiCaprio and Russell Crowe planning special operations to nab the Al Qaeda jihadis. Roger Ferris is the agency’s man on the ground, moving from.
Guess, it will be a long wait before baddies like Dr No and Mogambo hit the screens again. The CIA’s hunt is on for the mastermind of a wave of terrorist attacks. TERRORIST fatigue, anyone? With almost every film taking on the terrorist these days, the viewers seem to wishing for the good old villains of yore.
