Two things moved me very much about this film:
The first was Lt Rushing, one of the US military media liaison officers at Centcom. His open-mindedness, fairness and plain decency are very rare to find in any spin doctor, let alone one working for an army during a war. He is a credit to himself, his family and his country, and I sincerely hope he hasn't suffered any professional repercussions for his honesty in this piece.
The second was the man who was the head of Al Jazeera. It was funny when he said he would accept a job at Fox News the second it was offered. But it turned out to be heartbreaking when he said as soon as his children are old enough, he'll send them to the US for education, in order to escape the "Arab nightmare" and live the "American dream". It's so sad that that part of the world is such a mess that even people who love it and have grown up there and are rooting for it recognise that there is little hope there for their children. If only that sentiment could be channelled into finding a solution for the problems in the Middle East.

This is a sensational movie - Gary Cole as Bill Lumbergh is the stand-out, especially the scene where Peter imagines him having sex with his girlfriend (complete with coffee mug).
I'm trying to single out some scenes as favourites, but there are so many... the one where Peter tells the therapist every day is the worst day of his life ... Michael Bolton rapping in his car until the black window washer walks by ... Jennifer Aniston showing the boss her "flair" ... Lawrence saying if he had a million dollars he'd do two chicks at once.
The minor characters are all brilliant, from the "Somebody's got a case of the Mondays" woman to Bryan, the flair guy.
My husband and I quote lines from this film to each other all the time, especially when we need each other to do something .. "Yeahhh, hi Phil, how's it going ... I'm gonna hafta ask you to do the dishes ... yeah, that'd be greeeattt".
