One of the most interesting, and funny, aspects of this film was watching Valerie (Naomi Watts) and Joe (Sean Penn) sit at their dinner table or in a restaurant with their friends as they spouted the carefully scripted emanations from the White House designed to deceive the American public. Joe and Valerie knew the truth, but could not say a word. Joe would just call them out, but could not explain. It was hilarious.
The rest of the film is not so hilarious, as we watch Bush and his regime cherry pick data and deliberately falsify information in their lust for war. The administration knew there were no WMD, but they went ahead anyway.
Then, when they got caught in their lies, they set out to destroy a family, and cause the deaths of Iraqi scientists in the process.
There is nothing new her to anyone that doesn't get their information from Fox. It is a story that has been told over and over in different forms, and the end is always the same. They wanted to go to war, and damn anyone who got in their way.
Penn and Watts were incredible.
