" Watched May 18th - VUDU Streaming - 1st Viewing "You want to set up a movie in a week, you want to lie to Hollywood, a town where everybody lies for a living - then you're gonna sneak 007 over here into a country that wants CIA blood on their breakfast cereal and you're gonna walk the Brady Bunch out of the most watched city in the world." - Lester Siegel I had put off watching Argo for various reasons, but I kept hearing glowing recommendations about it and it did win the best picture Oscar,"

"9.5. Iran seems to be a real snakepit according to this movie. I don't know how true thas was but the fact is that Khomeini was no boyscout and everyone with a sense of reason knows to not to take Hollywood pictures that seriously. "Argo" is a fun thriller that has some really intense moments in it. Affleck has now made three movies and all of them are good. Affleck is officially a master filmmaker now. "
