The Green Zone
icon1 klchoo | icon2 Koon Lip, Movies | icon4 03 23rd, 2010| icon3No Comments »

Yesterday I watched ‘The Green Zone’ starring Matt Damon. I must say this is so Much better than the one (i.e. The Hurt Locker) I watched last week… The pace is good, the story gives us a possible (or perhaps real) dissection of the Iraq warring situation and definitely, the top-notch almost non-stop action by director Paul Greengrass!

Made for more than USD100million, the up-to-date

The production studio did what it could to hide the film’s Iraq setting and pushed it instead as a film from the Jason Bourne guys but audiences didn’t buy into it. With a production cost of more than $100M, The Green Zone grossed a weak ten-day total of only $25M in North America and likely to end up with a domestic take of just $35-40M. The early overseas tally is $20M with many markets still to open, but recovering production and marketing costs internationally will also be a challenging task.

This also brings me to think about how the movie producers think like traders and investors alike. Purely investor complacency. With a superb track record from the 2 Bourne colloboration between Matt Damon and Paul Greengrass, they may think any story will sell across. This movie is definitely a hard sell, but this is definitely one of the year’s best!!!
