Green Zone Clips: Matt Damon Can't Find Any WMDs![]()
Even though it’s just a couple of weeks away from release, it feels like Green Zone is still sort of flying under the radar. I get it. We’re all pretty burnt out on Iraq movies and Green Zone, unlike say The Hurt Locker seems zeroed in most specifically on all of the things we’re most tired of. Matt Damon runs around as a soldier in Iraq trying to find weapons of mass destruction, even though there aren’t any, and in the process does a lot of moralizing about bad intelligence. You’re tired of it, I’m tired of it, it makes sense.
But consider this. It’s directed by Paul Greengrass is one of the most brilliant filmmakers working today. His last movie with Matt Damon was The Bourne Ultimatum, one of the best action movies of all time. The last time he tackled US politics and our reaction to terrorism, it was to make United 93, one of the best movies of 2006 and almost unquestionably the definitive 9/11 movie. Greengrass makes great movies. Greengrass and Matt Damon together make great movies. These Green Zone clips deserve your attention. Make it through the first five and you’ll be rewarded with a Bourne-like, badass action sequence. It’s as close as you’re going to get to a Bourne 4. We’ve also updated our preview section with the completed, full gallery of Green Zone promotional images. See all of those right here.
