    06 December 2008
    A political thriller based on a book by Robert Baer, Syriana tackles some serious and pressing subjects. Weaving parallel lives together, Syriana is an exploration of oil, corruption and big business, which features a CIA agent, an energy analyst, an attorney and an immigrant worker all connected in a web of power. Syriana proves that it is possible to make an entertaining film with a clear message, as it strikes a balance between politics and drama. George Clooney puts in a memorable and highly charged performance and the supporting characters are equally fascinating. Syriana is a gripping film regardless of how strongly you might feel about the themes it deals with. Syriana really does make you think. Well worth a watch.
