Another Hollywood Anti-War Flop
More lost money, more left-wing propaganda.
The new Matt Damon/Paul Greengrass anti-war/Bush-bashing film, Green Zone cost $150 million, and has taken in close to a decent $25 million as of this writing, still only approximately 1/4 of it's budget. Surely not what Universal nor lefty propagandists, Damon and Greengrass would have liked for their revisionist piece of work. Odd, coming from the director that gave us United 93. And although more successful than the previous bombs in this post, certainly this film can not be classified as such, Green Zone will be another anti-war film that just didn't do what the producers hoped it would-make Americans revile Bush, depise the CIA and be cynical about their own country. With all these films tanking, again it is quite clear that the message is more important than the money. Which should be a good thing, but in the bizarro world that is Hollywood, it is dumb-founding.
Big Hollywood's John Nolte has a review.
