Body Of Lies
Russel Crowe may have packed on 50 pounds for his part, yet his performance feels extremely blah.
He speaks everything in the same meandering drawl, which may have been the point, but his character disappears for such lengthy bits, we tend to forget about him.
The promised pairing of him and Dicaprio is weightless; their scenes have no fire or bite.
Roger Ferris, Leonardo DiCaprio, is a CIA covert operative working in Jordan searching for terrorists who have been bombing civilian targets.
Ferris uncovers information on the Islamist mastermind Al-Saleem (Alon Aboutboul).
He devises a plan to infiltrate Al-Saleem’s terrorist network with the help of his boss back in Langley, Ed Hoffman (Russell Crowe).
