Review of Argo

Argo (2012)
9/10
Gripping throughout
30 October 2012
First of all, it must be said that Ben Afflect has re-created (and added a bit of fantasy) a situation that gripped the world. He has done this with real imagination, great sets, brilliant acting and an atmosphere that catches all viewers without any slow or boring spots. To add to this , his acting performance as Mendez in first-rate. When doing a review it is usually fashionable to find fault (even to the extent of childish nit-picking), but that is not possible with this truly exciting story of an attempt to rescue American Embassy officials from Iran. Afflect's direction is firm and controlled, and his Movie must be a contender at the Oscars for Best Picture. Do not miss this one!
