Syriana?


The exciting trailer and mounds of pseudoreviews on TV and magazines created a big ball of anticipation in me. So I longed to spend my Saturday night for a great entree. Well, as always, the old adage not to judge a movie by it's trailer prevailed. The big puzzle of a movie made me feel that it will come to a big clincher in the end. But it did not happen. Aside from a gory torture scene and a suspenseful explosion, Syriana did not deliver. Although it's not really a secret, I admire the attempt to divulge the crazy innards of the oil industry. But the execution could do more than a garnish. Oh wait, if you're a chubby chaser and likes older men, then, by all means, watch it for a shirtless and chunky George Clooney.
