    Great, eye opening and relevant movie.

    Not for minors but well worth watching for all adults unless you're squeamish about some nudity, drug use and very mature subject matter. Historically accurate and makes one not want the U.S. to leave Iraqis the way we deserted the Afghan people. A must see.

    A good comedy FOR ADULTS

    Grpahic nudity in some scenes great movie but 16 and older probably 17.

    Great movie... for ADULTS

    I thoroughly enjoyed this movie. I found its message and lesson on recent history very enlightening. But I would think twice about bringing your children to see it. Perhaps a mature teenager could appreciate it, but discussion should certainly follow about this movie. It does bring up a lot of questions about the current state of our relationship with other nations today. This would be best rented on DVD, when you can more easily discuss this with your teen children.... BUT, I should say again, this is probably not a movie for most under 17.

    entertaining movie about important history

    I cannot understand why this film is listed as a comedy. It covers very serious ground while it moves the story along in a witty and entertaining manner. I recommend it for teens 16 and over and for all adults. The information the movie gives us about the US involvement with Afghanistan in the 70's and 80's and about how our government operates behind the scenes is an eye-opener and well worth knowing more about.

    One of the best movies of 2007...

    I went into this with high expectations; alas, I was not disappointed at all. This is an amazing film that will surely clean up at the Oscars. I don't think parents have to worry about their kids because they wouldn't be taking them to an adult film like this, but if your kid is enamored by politics, then take them. Keep in mind the language is strong, there is one graphic hot tub scene, and there is lots of drug use. So, don't take your kids; but do go yourself though, because this is one of the most fantastic movies I've ever seen. Easily the best political comedy since Dr. Strangelove.

    Amazing

    Amazing movie! There are a few iffy things in the movie though.. the nudity is in the very first scene but it is barely visible because of the water in the hot tub(the naked women are also snorting cocaine)... there are quite a few f words but they appear in basically 2 scenes. there is about 30-40 minutes where not one f word is present..
