Green Zone (The Movie Review)

Scott, A. O. "Movie Review - Green Zone - A Search for That Casualty, Truth - NYTimes.com." Movie Reviews, Showtimes and Trailers - Movies - New York Times - The New York Times. 12 Mar. 2010. Web. 25 Feb. 2011. http://movies.nytimes.com/2010/03/12/movies/12green.html.

Scott said that “…While the picture they paint of infighting among the Americans and growing factionalism among the Iraqis may not be literally accurate in every particular, it has the rough authority of novelistic truth.”
I agree with Scott because this movie is fiction, but it has the feeling of a documentary. It gives the people that are watching a lot of information about the war and how the soldiers live. It gives a feeling of what life is like in Iraq. You will not only just be watching a  movie if you watch “Green Zone”, but you will be watching a documentary.
“My own response to “Green Zone” is almost exactly the opposite: it’s about time.”
Scott is saying that a lot of people might think that the movie came out a little too late, but according to him it was the right time. It was about time that somebody started to show what was really going on in Iraq.  If you want to understand how and why things went like they did in Iraq, then I would suggest you watch this movie.
