    not too many movies are realistic these days. I read that it's based on a real guy, is this true or is this the unrealistic part?

    I can't see it being that good - Nic Cage is a horrible actor IMO, he overracts terribly.

    100% agreed,

    I like in the movie that line "Dont worry, i never sold arms to Osama Bin Laden, (during the soviet occupation).. not on any moral grounds, but because his cheques wouldn't clear" - Bin Laden's are freakin extremely, extremely RICH, and America -admitted- to having arms dealers supply the mujahadeen

    Interpol is a information networking police organization, they use the countries gov't police force (not their own) to catch people wanted for international crimes. - I loved the scene where Interpol apparently has their own fleet of attack jets and intercepted an unarmed transport plane and started firing at it...

    Than of course, their was the whole women freaking out because the husband was an arms dealer... which i thought was great, because her, as an american, should've understood that America was founded by freedom fighters to rebel against the british rule. And possessing firearms in order to form militias was.. just sort of... an integral part of U.S. History.

    The brother of course was great, freaking out about selling weapons - its sort of like a drug dealer having a moral objection about selling drugs.. it doesnt make any god-damn sense, and of course if he's going to act so arrogant he should expect those results



    That movie was basically a sellout, it never pushes the edge in political issues.

    Thats funny people keep saying that because thats exactly how my roommate described the movie before I watched it. I know it's fiction and "hollywoodized", but it was based on fact (some) and sort of showed a little behind arms dealing. I especially liked the ending where it said the five largest arms dealers were also the five permanent members of the UN security council. Damn we are some hypocrits.

    I too am a Nic Cage fan (aside from the cheesy accent in Conair). He played OCD great in Matchstick Men.

    I watched about half of the movie. Not bad, I do agree it's kind of like Blow. I'm going to finish it soon hopefully. It's worth renting, not a great movie, but it's not bad.
