Argo(2012)- User Reviews

This was a very good movie and I think fairly historically accurate.. In light of situations in the Middle East today it is very thought provoking. I doubt the acting will get any Academy Award noms but it could be worthy of a Best Picture nom. If …more»

My wife and I lived through this time period and movie was well done, well acted, time period, and they chose actors that looked so close to the real people. Watch the credits at the end... especially the last frame. Tony Hernandez was a real hero as …more»

My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed Argo. We lived through the Iranian hostage situation, but there obviously was much we didn't know. Well written, appropriate suspense, and just a "wow" movie. A lot of "F-bombs" which normally …more»
