Affleck's 'Argo' is the story of a movie which never got made. It's a well-acted and well-directed inspiring true story. Affleck has grown as a director and guides his exemplary cast to perfection, in this political thriller. In just three films, Ben Affleck has reached quite far.

The movie starts well, with a short glimpse of Iran's history, it gathers good pace and maintains necessary tension till the very end.

The only complain I had was that it only focuses on he plight of the 6 fugitives stranded at the Canadian Ambassador's house. It doesn't tell much about the remaining hostages, nor does it tell about the plight of the Iranians. Iranians are shown just as bunch of violent hooligans; it's quite vague and inaccurate. What happened was the culmination of a long series of grievances harbored by many Iranians against the United States. Not that their storming into the embassy could be excused. But, there are lot of things excluded which doesn't give the big and clear picture.
