Though the film is back in the theaters, it had already become available On Demand. We watched during yesterday's lazy afternoon and have now gained understanding as to "Why?" it won the coveted gold for best film on Oscar Sunday.
Tense, dramatic and real, the story of Tony Mendez and his incredible scheme to rescue six American hostages can really knock one's priorities around a bit.
Fabulous casting and nail-biting suspense... it's a "Ten".
