I was so bored today and decided to watch old movies(2005).One
of the movies is call Lord of War.
It is a story bassed on a man named Yuri (Nicolas Cage)
who in the early 80's decides that he doesn't want to just work
in a restaurant for the rest of his life and decides that instead he wants
to be an arms dealer. Once he makes his first sale,
Yuri is hooked on the feeling of making big money for
selling firearms, and continues to sell the firearms but he
wants more and more of a profit and more and more of a challenge. It's not until an Interpol agent (Ethan Hawke) is hot on Yuri's case that he begins to question the nature
of his business and whether what he is doing for a living is
moral and if he should be responsible for the hands these weapons
get into and what they are used for
This movie really caught my eye for a few reasons. The main reason
is that for the most part you can't predict what is going to happen
next or where the film is going. Another reason I like movies like
this is because it's powerful and its makes you think. And lastly I like a
movie like this because it doesn't end in a typical way and actually
leaves you feeling blown-away and surprised.
Another reason i like this movie because of the facts in it.
Such as what Yuri the Arms dealer said "it's not our war and
no matter what we do we can't stop it" and that's true it's like
smoking kills people every day but there are people who run
cigarette companies everyday knowing that they are killing people
every single day and getting people addicted to something
that in the end will kill them. Is that moral? What can we do to stop it?
