Argo

On Nov. 4, 1979, militants storm the U.S. embassy in Tehran, Iran, taking 66 American hostages. Amid the chaos, six Americans manage to slip away and find refuge with the Canadian ambassador. Knowing that it's just a matter of time before the refugees are found and likely executed, the U.S. government calls on extractor Tony Mendez (Ben Affleck) to rescue them. Mendez's plan is to pose as a Hollywood producer scouting locations in Iran and train the refugees to act as his "film" crew.

Oct. 12, 2012 - Detroit News - Tom Long / Detroit News Film Critic

Part nail-biting thriller, part comic caper, "Argo" is one immensely entertaining film.

Argo

.Finally a adult movie with some intelligence compared to most of the movies out this year. Great story that was presented very well. Much of the film kept you on the edge of your seat. I think the acting was very good and what really helped the movie was a lot of of excellent performances by character actors. There also was a nice touch of humor throughout the movie. I would of given it 4 stars but I didn't care for the excess amount of profanity.
