Argo


IMDB
First time viewed: Yes
Current Release: Yes
Watched With: Paul, Ben, Marko

The tension just doesn't let up in this one. Ben Affleck knocks it out of the park.

I love the amazing ensemble of great character actors in all these bit parts, many almost unrecognisable in their amazing 70's wardrobe.

There's so much to like here, especially the story and the 70's hollywood scenes with John Goodman and Alan Arkin. The recreations of some of the big events are very impressive. It's often hard to tell if we are watching stock footage or beautifully faked film grain.

This is just immaculately put together and juggles characters and tone and storylines effortlessly. And I kinda wanna see what that Argo film would have been too heh. Sounds like my kinda movie.
