Body of Lies is a 2008 American spy thriller film directed and produced by Ridley Scott, written by William Monahan, and starring Leonardo DiCaprio and Russell Crowe in the lead roles. Personally i liked Crowe's performance more as a CIA head he was very dedicated to the role and put on 66pounds for it, he also had the Virginian accent down. Did Rid pull it off? Body of Lies is a smart political thriller on the state of some of the world's debacles, Some of the high points of the film were the action sequences which were very similar to the style of action sequences of "Black Hawk Down". The critical consensus reads, 'Body of Lies relies too heavily on the performances of DiCaprio and Crowe to lift it above a conventional espionage thriller.
