Very nice. Nice girls.

\"Lord of War\" is a commentary on the evils of War. Nicolas Cage plays an arms dealer who deal in both in arms and misery. A movie that should be viewed with eyes open. Something to think about after the movie is over.

Slightly repetitive and depressing.

A "based on true events" story that is probably more fact than fiction, Cage plays an arms dealer with very little in the way of morality to get in the way of his chosen profession: dealing guns to any buyer who pays.

His ingenuity in getting out of tight spots with the Interpol agents pursuing him makes the movie interesting to watch even while you are repulsed at the subject matter.

What could be seen as just a vehicle for Nicolas Cage to smarm his way through a movie, is better viewed as an examination of those in the world who seem to be hell-bent on destruction for their own gains, and those who are more than willing to supply them with whatever they need to meet their goals. By the time the movie is over, you realize that the lines are not drawn so nicely as you might want them to be.
