DVD Review; "LORD OF WAR" B-

Nic Cage is mostly Nic Cage again in this film with lots of added voice over stuff in the form of a gun runner's rules. This one gets a B- for the sole fact that its based on true life events and illegal arms trading that took (and takes) place around the world. The sheer amount of weapons in the world is staggering and its really hard to believe that there are this many guns in existence. Disturbing is the traders lack of morals in their sales of weapons that they knew would immediately be used to slaughter thousands of people. The scope of filming a movie like this really covers the social questions of arms trade and the entertaining value of film making for audiences with a tale of one particular gun runner.
