Product Description

 
With THE GOOD SHEPHERD, Robert De Niro (A BRONX TALE) makes an ambitious return to the director's chair. A labor of love for Oscar-winning screenwriter Eric Roth (FORREST GUMP), the film tells an epic, fictionalized account of how the Central Intelligence Agency was born. Matt Damon plays Edward Wilson, a reserved young man who graduated from Yale in the late 1930s. His membership in the exclusive, hidden Skull and Bones society led him away from poetry and into a relationship with the federal government, who recruited him to help them on several covert operations. Roth's script alternates between Wilson's gradual emergence as a genuine government operative in the early 1940s and the infamous Bay of Pigs conflict in the early 1960s. Along the way, he has a sweet romance with a pretty deaf girl (a sparkling Tammy Blanchard) and ends up marrying the woman he impregnates (Angelina Jolie) out of a strong sense of duty. Throughout the film, the emergence of a mysterious tape haunts Wilson, who is determined t...

The Good Shepherd --- Matt Damon and Angelina Jolie Almost bore me to death

Date of Review:  Sep 22, 2007
The Bottom Line: A frustratingly boring film, this one lacks any real notion of entertainment, and is just a waste of time when it comes to viewing.
Review:
Director Robert De Niro forgot one very important aspect of film-making when he took the Eric Roth written script to the big screen. That tangible ingredient was to make the characters interesting enough to carry a strong story from beginning...

The Bottom Line: This is a great movie, but it demands you pay attention to mine its depths...it is a thinking man's movie.
Review: The Good Shepherd (2006) Directed by Robert De Niro From the novel by Eric Roth

Joseph Palmi: "You're the guys that scare me. You're the people that make big wars."
Edward Wilson: "No, we make sure the wars are small ones."

brad's Experience

Date of Review:  Dec 31, 2007
The Bottom Line: Great movie. Powerful message. Educational, even if fiction. Americans should see this movie.
Review: I don't normally trek into this part of the woods here at Epinions - movie reviews. However, this movie moved me in a few particular ways to the point where I thought I should share my experience viewing it.

I skimmed over some of the...

Edward Wilson understands the value of secrecy - discretion and commitment to honor have been embedded in him since childhood. As an eager, optimistic student at Yale, he is recruited to join the secret society Skull and Bones, a brotherhood and breeding ground for future world leaders. Wilson's acute mind, spotless reputation and sincere belief in American values render him a prime candidate for a career in intelligence, and he is soon recruited to work for the OSS (the precursor to the CIA) during WWII. As one of the covert founders of the CIA, working in the heart of an organization where duplicity is required and nothing is taken at face value, Edward's idealism is steadily eroded by a growing suspicious nature, reflective of a world settling into the long paranoia of the Cold War. As his methods are adopted as standard operating procedure, Wilson develops into one of the Agency's veteran operatives, all the while combating his KGB counterpart. However, his steely dedication to his country comes at an ...
