I thought Charlie Wilson's War was a good film. Enjoyed the majority of it, although parts did get a little boring. The humour was fantastic, the acting was also really good, Tom Hanks again puts in an A1 performance. I thought it was mainly polictically correct with what i know from my own knowledge and is a good film if your intrested in the topic of the US and Afganistan. If your simply a Tom Hanks fan it is also a must see, with Julie Roberts looking sexy as ever putting in a classy performance.

Tom Hanks is brilliant in this film as is Philip Seymour Hoffman both are very well cast. Julia Roberts is ok but I think her costumes outshine her acting. An interesting and true story which people should know about. Some humour and tounge in cheek laughs make this film enjoyable and worth viewing. However I wont be rushing to buy on DVD.
