Charlie Wilson's War

I thought it was slightly above average since it's just a paint-by-the-numbers type of film, and I never really got into any of the characters, and the screenplay left me blase about the whole film. I think it needed a different directorial tone as well, a little less flippancy about the situation (covertly diverting funds to give the Afghans the hardware to stave off the Soviet onslaught into Afghanistan).

I give it 2.5 stars, or a grade of C+
