Amazon.com:
The considerable authority of Robert Redford pulls some heavyweight talent into Lions for Lambs, a rare Hollywood foray into flat-out political filmmaking. Three dramas, all connected, play out simultaneously during the same hour: On a mountainside in Afghanistan, two U.S. soldiers (Michael Pena and Derek Luke) find themselves stranded during a new military surge; on Capitol Hill, a Republican senator (Tom Cruise) tries to sell the new strategy to a seasoned reporter (Meryl Streep); and in California, a professor (Redford) tries to light the fire of commitment in an increasingly apathetic college student (Andrew Garfield). Director Redford cuts back and forth amongst these arenas, a gambit which thankfully obscures how weak the one non-talkfest (the Afghanistan segment) really is. You can tell Redford and screenwriter Matthew Michael Carnahan put their juice in the debate between Cruise and Streep, which summarizes Right and Left views on the Middle Eastern wars, and does so reasonably lucidly--although there is little here that would surprise anyone who has looked into the subject. The college section suggests Redford's belief that there are lots of people, distracted by tabloid culture and self-centeredness, who haven't looked into the subject. So he lectures us about it, sounding suspiciously like an old geezer remembering the good old days. If this film had been released in 2004, it might at least have bucked majority opinion, but coming out in fall of 2007, it already felt like old news. --Robert Horton

Actually, 3 stars for composition, 4.5 stars for message, 5+ stars for final graphics.
This isn't cut together as an action film, though it could have been. It's not pure entertainment, either. It's a provocative movie that makes no secret of its intent to challenge your personal convictions. It's completely gutsy.
If you have family in the armed forces on deployment overseas, this one could be pretty hard to watch. Otherwise, it's a must see! Watch it before the ... Read More

All about slamming the war and our president and keeping a liberal view in going into the military! Save your money and time!

Since Redford directed this film, I probably set my expectations too high for him to meet. With all the excellent independent films he has viewed through his Sundance film festival, I thought "Lions for Lambs" would do a better job of dissecting the sorts of narratives we receive from the establishment. So, it was disappointing to see the Afghani fighters portrayed as amorphous blobs on the screen, set in a scenario where the audience is to cheer for their destruction (that is, kill the "other" before ...

Isn't it amazing that when views such as those in this movie are made public, those who prefer to be led by the nosering get defensive. What makes a person so fearful of opposing ideas? Could it be that it shows ones beliefs to be false?
If you are someone who dislikes change, you prefer some external entity to make up your mind for you, and really have no intent to take responsibility for your actions - then leave this movie alone! It is a fairytale killer.
For those of you who ... Read More
