As with 30 Rock, the pace and dialog are relentless meaning that if you're over 50, you'd need to see it 3 times to catch all the dialog. You'd be better off seeing it in a foreign language for the subtitles. That being said, it's a great movie otherwise. Unpredictable, as is war. Just a meaningless quagmire. That's what war and ambition are. If you want everything tied up in a neat little bundle, well, we've seen that many times before, haven't we. There is no point in trying to make a point.
