So I got to go see this one with the whole fam (mom, dad, and lil bro) and that was quite nice! Anyhow, I enjoyed this one, despite Aaron Sorkin's ability to annoy me even when I agree with him. The whole thing is very easy breezy, and the real life events & characters are interesting and absorbing. For those out there who are annoyed at the mere mention of Julia Roberts, don't worry, she's not in it all that much. They basically spell it all out for you at the end, as to how these earlier events in Afghanistan led to the current situation. But then, if it's not preachy, it's not Sorkin.
