    I love this movie. Story line is great. Acting is why I'm looking for. The character Tom Hanks plays shows a different side of him that I enjoy watching.

    A definite recommendation for those interested in political intrigue with a comedic feel, and of course, any fan of Tom Hanks and Philip Seymour Hoffman.

    Anyone watching the news knows there is a nasty political battle underway. This movie is a must see. Politics at its best and worst.

    Loved seeing Tom Hanks and Julia Roberts in roles that was not typical of them at the time. They did a great job! Even though the plot is of a serious nature, it has humor.

    I love Aaron Sorkin, and to pair him with Tom Hanks and throw folks like Phillip Seymour Hoffman and Julia Roberts into the mix is just amazing.

    Great performance by Tom Hanks and others of a true story. Most Americans know the Soviets "lost" in Afghanistan. This story shows why

    Hoffman Wages War

    This movie is polished, sanitized entertainment. Hanks is miscast in the lead, unable to summon the darker shades of the character. Roberts too poised and artificial. Only Philip Seymour Hoffman gives the film any juice. Directed by Mike Nichols and written by Aaron Sorkin, you expect a lot more than this lackluster story of a flawed politician that ultimately makes a difference.
