Watch Lord of War For Free

Thanks for the memories!

Such a frustrating disappointment

To all those who have watched it: I hope you enjoyed it as much as I do.

The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

Apart from the very serious topic, this is just an incredibly well made film. There are many scenes in this movie which stay with you long after the credits have rolled, the darkly funny ones as well as the truly horrific ones, and to me this is something only the best movies ever achieve. Intelligent and stylish: this is one of very few so called "films with a message" that I can watch again and again, because it's so cleverly constructed and so beautifully shot and acted. A personal favorite, 10 stars out of 10.Favorite films: IMDb.com/list/mkjOKvqlSBs/Lesser-Known Masterpieces: imdb.com/list/ls070242495/

I think Cage was born for this role. He delivers a role that suits him incredibly well. But a good movie, or a real one, can rely solely on special effects or even good actors. It's all about the script, and then putting the rest of the puzzle together. And that's exactly what Niccols does here. Everything's top notch, from cage itself, to the soundtrack and of course, the script. Maybe this movie is not for everybody, but if you enjoy thinking about a move during and after watching it, this one will have you doing that for a long time, since it approaches the gun subject, and we all know how delicate it is. Definitely, a must watch.

From the opening sequence showing a bullet approach the head of an "innocent"* African child to the entire slap-dash, never mind the details, narrative given by Nick Cage, there is roughly zero honesty here. It is typical Hackneyedwood "narrative".*How an "innocent" "child" comes to be the only person standing in the middle of a gun battle is best left to low-IQ imaginations of people who believe in films like this.ps: said "innocent" "child" was shown from the neck up. Panning back would have shown the rocket launcher he was holding. DUH!!!

It starts as a promising movie. Nicolas Cage as Yuri leaves a good impression at the beginning and it looks like on of those black comic films which do highlight a serious problem but doesn't take themselves too seriously. Something like Wolf of Wall Street. At the beginning it had that feel, but overdoes of morality and a sense of leaving a message at the end killed the movie. Somewhere along the way writer developed a sense of morality and abruptly tries to change the track which does effect the story line and kill it. There seems to be a rush to end the film that too at a very different note where it started i.e. making an un-apologetic gum smuggler feel guilty. If don well and more gradually it might have worked, but the way all of a sudden, a wife that never questioned her husband's source of money developing a sense of morality, killing his brother to bring a scenario of doom seemed like an afterthought. The worst were last 10 mins in which the power of his connections is exhibited. Overall well acted movie with good dialogs and good first half but weak ending to the story which kills the movie
