Charlie Wilson's War Movie Review by star757.
Buy the Movie Poster for Charlie Wilson's War
This movie is based on a true story about a congressman who helped fund the Afghans to stop the Soviet invasion in the 1980's. Tom Hanks plays Charlie Wilson a U.S. representative from Texas. He likes women and having fun, and he starts to get an interest on what is going on in Afghanistan. Julia Roberts plays Joanne Herring, a wealthy Texas socialite that promotes causes she feels God would have her involved in. She wants to raise awareness of the plight of the Afghans and thinks Charlie Wilson can get Congress to provide the funds to win this covert war. Phillip Seymour Hoffman plays a CIA agent who doesn't get along with his superior and is looking for something to do. His coworker suggests they fight the communists and this is how the three main characters get involved with each other. Amy Adams also stars as Charlie Wilson's administrative assistant. The money follows them trying to raise money, work with others in Washington, and visit other Middle Eastern countries to get them involved. Charlie has to bring Pakistan, Israel, Egypt and Saudi Arabia together to win this war. As well as getting the money from Washington for this covert operation. Overall it was a good movie with a good plot. The movie keeps progressing and is fairly short at just over 1 hr and 30 min. The characters are interesting and well acted. I would recommend this movie based on a true story.
