Very good political drama

I didn't cop-on that this was based on true events until halfway through the movie. Very interesting movie with great performances from two always brillian leads. I was so drawn in to this that I watched this movie again the next day with the commentary (by Valerie Plame and Joe Wilson) turned on. I'm sure its a little bit one-sided and clearly some poetic license is taken on some of of the sentimental bits - but even if only 25% of this is accurate, it's a tale worth listening to.
Emmm Boring??

Its a true story and a good one but not very well told in this movie.
Infact it was very boring. I was very surprised because the two leads are amazing actors. I think this film was wasted on them.
Id give it a miss.
Engrossing Story

Good acting and engrossing story. Plenty of fast paced dialogue. Based on the book of the true story it maybe doesn't go deep enough into some aspects of the Governments reaction but a good over view.
Very good

Excellent political drama based on true story. Would make your blood boil when you see the machinations of Bush, Cheney, Libby et co. Sean Penn a bit OTT but doesn't spoil it.
Top notch political drama

Frightening that it's true events. West Wing paced so had to concentrate! Naomi Watts and Sean Penn give fantastic performances.
