The film of the year!

"You can't build cover stories around a movie that doesn't exist. You need a script, you need a producer. "

Gone Baby Gone and The Town were enough to establish Ben Affleck as a superlative director, but Argo verifies that he's a filmmaking force to be reckoned with. What we have here is a godsend of a motion picture; a smart, riveting old-fashioned thriller which conveys a fascinat... read more

Let’s all just take a breath and a step back and actually look at Argo for a minute. Is it a bad movie? Not by a mile. In fact, it’s probably one of the better mainstream films to come out in 2012. But is it the awards-worthy juggernaut that it looks to become in the coming weeks? God, no! Nomination it for Best Picture all you want, but don’t give it the damn thing.

Since I heard about this movie, I became intrigued and when it won finally the Best Picture Academy Award, I thought it was finally time to watch the damned thing. And, to my surprise, I really loved it. I mean, I was expecting something good but not something so entertaining and quite flawless. Indeed, it was historically fascinating, it was a thrilling thriller and there were even some hilarious... read more

" Amazing. I think this film deserves to get an Oscar nomination. In my opinion, Ben Affleck still is a shitty actor, but a terrific director. "

"4.6. Periaatteessa Argo on ihan kivasti tehty elokuva, joka on huomattavasti Hollywoodin peruspaskatoimintaa parempi. Kuitenkin sen mitäänsanomattomuus ja armoton tylsyys tekevät siitä hyvin raskasta katsottavaa. En pysty ymmärtämään, miksi tästäkin pitää olla tehty joku pidennetty leikkaus, kun teatteriversiossakin on helposti noin puolet aivan täysin turhaa materiaalia."

"1.17 I admit, I am not a big fan of "Argo." Nor one of those furious that Ben Affleck didn't win. It's a fine movie but its no "Munich." "Want to hit the arcades later on? Play some Asteroids?""

" 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. "
