A true story about a corrupt use of information, or be it the best way of using deception to a population. Testing the true strength of an army mans will, lies, war, deceit, misinformation, being misled, falsification of government documentation, twisting a mans words to use them against them to make a situation out of nothing.

No, I am not speaking about the government of today. Even though this bodies it in its entirety. I am speaking of the movie Green Zone. This movie literally puts things into perspective for you, whether you wish to see things for what they are or not, war is and always has been about politics, this movie pushes that envelope that much further.

Matt Damon plays Chief Warrant Officer to the U.S. Army Roy Miller. He and his team are given the task of going to the sites located and described in their briefings and check for WMD's. What happens when he sees that there is nothing there? He becomes a true human being. Thats what happens. He asks natural and important questions, but reluctantly without any answers.

Or be it the answers he is receiving are not the answers to his questions. Who is the information? Why are we here? Who was behind all of this? Are the 3 most important question while watching this film, but Matt Damon's character shines, with true courage and sheer balls to do what not many are willing to. Go against the grain to see whom is truly right.

This movie had a very solid script, very good directing, was also very well shot and depicts a very real moral dilemma faced by anyone whom sees something first hand. Be it in the military or in civilian life. Solid acting made this movie that much better, to finally see a movie that showcases how corrupt a country can truly become, be it any country for that matter, truthfully shows that it really only takes that one person to truly make a difference in its outcome.
