t.o.w. lions for lambs

God, I needed this.

Finally a show that was powerful and poignant enough to erase the nightmare that was Stardust. Haha. Not that Stardust was atrocious, but it was rather weird and lame in a medieval kind of way.

So as a proud lefty, I say heck the critics and go watch Lions for Lambs. Acting thumbs up, although I thought Tom Cruise was too (horizontal) and really could have explored the (vertical). Meryl Streep was at her usual Sunday best and Robert Redford, well all I can say is that he's really ageing. Haha. But nevertheless, I thought the film explored really good themes. And despite the outrage against how anti-republican, anti-war and anti-america the show is, I thought it really was an accurate reflection of the democrat's take on the current situation in and abroad of America.

How political apathy is actually a free get-out-of-jail card for the government's temerity in some of her atrocious decisions in Iraq. How righteousness is a often misconstrued effort for peace; how they deviate. How the war against terror started out with America on a united front; in solidarity, but how it all fell part along political lines after the terrible choices made by the shrubbery and his staple. How the war, nevertheless, must and will go on till the stars and stripes wave victorious, because of how showmanship has come into play, sadly, into the faith of people's lifes. How brave the men and women of the military are - lions unafraid to stand tall at their death, one sentenced to them by the lambs that are their leaders.

The Republicans and the Pro-War, Pro-America people diss the film. Diss it for the Oscars that it will laud and recieve. Since when did Pro-Freedom give way to Pro-War for the movement behind Pro-America.

To all the American Republicans - they've made their film, so put your gun down and start making yours and then let the people who use their mouths instead of muzzles do the talking.
