Additional InformationLeonardo DiCaprio fights terrorists for the CIA in this rapid-fire thriller from director Ridley Scott (GLADIATOR, BLACK HAWK DOWN). While Roger Ferris (DiCaprio) gets his hands dirty on the teeming Arab streets, his handler Ed Hoffman (Russell Crowe) watches from Washington via spy satellite, cheerfully giving bull-in-a-china-shop style orders while picking up his kids from school. Innocent lives are lost, buildings blow up, and the threat of winding up beheaded on the internet is always one move away. LIES is decked out from front to back with fascinating bits of Arabic and espionage minutiae as it races along its wild mission to track down an elusive terrorist cell leader. Crowe's trigger-happy Hoffman provides the perfect foil to DiCaprio's anguished moral crusader. As the suave head of Jordanian intelligence, Mark Strong gives a scene-stealing, cobra-like performance that clashes beautifully with Crowe's 'ugly American' bullying. The beautiful Golshifteh Farahani plays the obligatory love interest, the nurse who treats Ferris' regularly occurring battle and torture wounds. Whereas most action heroes are completely healed within minutes of every fight, it's refreshing--in a grisly sort of way--to see how Ferris' wounds and bruises pile up. The solid, punchy script by William Monahan (THE DEPARTED) is adapted from the David Ignatius novel.

ReviewsUSA Today - BODY OF LIES is a tautly paced, well-acted espionage thriller with the requisite explosions and action sequences... [With] powerful performances by Leonardo DiCaprio, Mark Strong and Russell Crowe, Hollywood Reporter - DiCaprio gives the role plenty of brio, while Crowe -- who reportedly gained 50 pounds to play the morally and physically sloven office spook -- is agreeably obnoxious, Total Film - With every minute that passes in Ridley Scott's talky political thriller, DiCaprio swells to fit the role, forced to bring his A-game by two heavyweight co-stars, Rolling Stone - [BODY OF LIES] has the gritty feel of something observed firsthand. And the crafty script by DEPARTED Oscar winner William Monahan stays coiled and ready to spring
