5. I just returned my rental copy
It was a fascinating behind the scenes, on-the-front-lines take on the media and it really gets across the points of view of all sides on the Iraq war. Watch the special features too for more personal backgrounds on the main players.

Very interesting and worth renting, for sure.

Having said that, don't show it to people who aren't interested in media and or politics - they'll most likely find it a little dry.

6. If you are talking about the one with Jody Foster
I thought it was really disappointing and awful, sorry.

8. Excellent. I bought it on a military post...I know...shocking!
I encouraged everyone standing near me to buy a copy.

10. must see
Try not to throw things at the screen while you watch it though - a difficult thing to accomplish.

11. Very good movie
Only problem was that I wished it had continued beyond April 2003 to cover the events in Iraq since "major combat operations" officially ended by Bush proclamation.

Any chance there will be a sequel?
