2010, Rated R, 115 minutes Directed by Paul Greengrass, Written by Brian Helgeland, based on the book Imperial Life in the Emerald City: Inside Iraq’s Green Zone by Rajiv Chandrasekaran, Produced by Lisa Chasin & Debra Hayward, Cinematography by Barry Akroyd, Original Music by John Powell
With: Yigal Naor (General Al Rawi), Matt Damon (Miller), Amy Ryan (Lawrie Dayne), Greg Kinnear (Clark Poundstone), Brendan Gleeson (Martin Brown), Jason Isaacs (Briggs)
In an attempt to distance the movie from the war in the Iraq box office curse, Universal decided to market Green Zone as a movie with that director from Bourne Supremacy and Ultimatum, and Jason Bourne in the US army; the only problem is the movie does not really compare with any of the Bourne series and so draws viewers in with false expectations...at least that is what happened to me.
