Movie Review: Syriana

As I was watching this movie, I thought that it was a perfect companion to a book that I had previously read called The Prize : The Epic Quest for Oil, Money & Power.

The oil issue is so complex and involves so many angles and money that it's almost impossible to identify all of them, but Syriana did a very good-and balanced, I thought-job of telling the story.

The characters were empathetic, the interwoven-ness of it all was confusing (as it should be) and the moral quandaries presented were first rate.

Solid, solid movie
