' Syriana is light years from the standard Hollywood movie. It's meaty, intelligent and engrossing.' Time Magazine

'You see Syriana with the exhilarating feeling that a movie can make a difference. It's the kind of give-em-hell filmmaking that Hollywood left for dead, the kind that matters.' Rolling Stone
