Went to see In The Valley of Elah. Think I must have confused the trailers I had seen as I was expecting a bit of a FBI type shoot em up. Must be Tommy Lee Jones Being too busy recently.

What I did get however was fascinating. Some may see it was slow moving, but it is more appropriately paced as Jones tries to work out what happened to his son. He is ably supported by an understated Charlize Theron, with both portraying their characters with strong emotion.

From the same guy who brought you Crash, if you want a film to contemplate, then this is good. Plenty of Why War questions arising from this…
