"Syriana" | Um thiller de peso

crítica Variety

Que o diga George Clooney, que teve de engordar alguns quilos para vestir a pele de Bob Barnes, um agente da CIA, no segundo filme de Stephen Gaghan (o argumentista de "Traffic", de 2000). "Syriana" é um thriller dramático onde "tudo está interligado". Estreia-se dia 16 de Fevereiro nas salas portuguesas.

Syriana

By TODD MCCARTHY

Those complaining that Hollywood never turns out films of topical or political substance are likely to embrace "Syriana," a weighty and deeply intriguing look at the many-tentacled beast that is the international oil industry. Wide-ranging and restlessly probing, Stephen Gaghan's second directorial effort uses the same mosaic storytelling technique as in his Oscar-winning screenplay for "Traffic" to create a revealing portrait of diverse forces contributing to global tension, particularly concerning the Middle East. Terse, understated and sometimes confusing, this is the rare film that could actually benefit from being significantly longer. Warner Bros. release will become a must-see for thinking audiences and make inroads with the wider public thanks to star names and certain critical acclaim.
