U. S Army Chief Warrant Roy Miller is instructed with
the duty to find weapons of mass destruction (WMD) in war stricken Iraq, but unfortunately,
he found nothing for the third consecutive time. So, he started doubting the
intel but he is not satisfied with explanation of his senior officials. In another
search for WMD he is informed by a local resident, Freddy about a secret
meeting in the nearby place and came face to face with Al Rawi, the top most
General of Sadham Hussain. The only man captured during that ambush is Sayyed
but before Miller could extract anything from him, he is taken away by special
forces. Miller approaches Martin, a CIA official to help him, now both are in a
hunt to find Al Rawi and to know more about the Intel.
Paul
Greengrass is a familiar name for all those who love spy thriller from his
famous Bourne movies (though he didn’t direct the 1st and 4th
part of Bourne series). War Zone is a 2010 thriller movie of him which was
inspired by the book “Imperial Life in the Emerald City” by Rajiv
Chandrasekharan. It was partly depicted the real life of an American soldier in
the same name. It was not a commercial success but still received mixed reviews
and nomination for Best Director in Academy Awards. You can’t expect a Bourne
type fast paced movie, but still it will be worthy to watch for all those who
love military action.
