[@aritragupta4182]

It's amazing how much effort they put into developing Mark Strong and Russell Crowe's characters The Arab is a really professional spymaster who more than knows and is deeply invested in what he's doing...in complete contrast to The American who's ready to walk away at a moment's notice, burn as many assets as needed for instant gratification and doesn't really care about anything else other than his own operation, regardless of his professed 'global' concerns.

[@LeviathanXX]

Absolutely. Even wardrobe works to tell the story of who these people are: Hani is trim and well tailored while Ed is overweight and frumpy. Also, in terms of physicality of the roles, Hani presents as self-assured, measured, and still, while Ed is spastic, restless, and uncontrolled.

Ed was slippery pos in this movie, Crowe nailed it. As good as Crowe and Decaprio were, Mark Strong was the highlight of the movie for me.

[@borinakoune1803]

This was my favorite part and the best rebuttal" In matters of intelligence Edward you are speaking to the king".:))

[@Col.J.N.W.SinghKhandala]

Hani: You Americans...you are incapable of secrecy because you are a democracy. Ed Hoffman looks at Hani's bodyguard at that moment in a way to point out what kind of secrecy is Jordanian Intelligence capable of when there are clearly more than a required number of people in a highly confidential meeting concerning sharing of intelligence assets. And, at that very point in time, Hani's bodyguard returns Ed Hoffman's sarcastic look with his menacing one in a way saying,"Oh you... do not even doubt me with a stray thought of treason because I am certainly most faithful to the job that my country has entrusted me." Also picks up the matchbox sort of metaphorically speaking with body language that "you dare to go down that road and I will be ready with a lit match to burn your world." Excellent screenplay and superb direction.

[@sam93931]

yeah i saw this as well, this movie is so great, fantastic actors and scenario.

[@h.g347]

Abhijit Kashyap Whoa man. You're good!

[@death_parade]

And then compare this movie with the kind of crap our country produces. That movie "Uri" was such a stupid film. Too much hype, zero substance. Zero attention to detail. I really wish there were better Indian movies, 'cause I would love to see them. At least The Family Man does things somewhat nicely.

[@muhammadzeeshanmushtaq670]

Amazed to see your point of view.. i didn't notice that before😂.. but i love this movie.. watched more than 7 to 8 times

[@Col.J.N.W.SinghKhandala]

​@@muhammadzeeshanmushtaq670It is indeed a fantastic movie amongst my choice of a few others that are centred around the American versus Middle Eastern (absolutely avoidable) conflicts. Syriana & The Kingdom are the two others. I have a great deal of respect for the pure Arabs who while mindful of the greatest natural resource of all times (crude oil) that the lands that they inhabit have been blessed with are also demanding of the fact that the world powers treat them with utmost respect and humility whilst asking them to part with some of that resource to manage their country's respective energy needs. But on the contrary, much of the white world has been treating them with utter disrespect and downright humiliation. They have even attempted many times at bringing false disrepute to them in a bid to arm twist the Arabs into giving them that highly valuable resource virtually free of cost. There is a beautiful book titled - 'Why Muslims hate America and what the West can do about it' - by Group Captain Arjun Das of India that sheds some much needed light of unbiased knowledge upon this fact. Please do read it if you get the chance to do so.

[@ryanrodrigues5355]

I love the routine Ed Hoffman does where he tilts his head down and looks past his glasses when he's serious ... but looks back up when he's bullshitting! 😎

[@hameedullah385]

Russell Crowe

[@enzov9772]

Great subtle facial acting at 2:06. Up to this point Hani puts a cool facade when taking to Hoffman. Then Hoffman shows the picture that Hani didn’t have and we see a small crack in Hani’s otherwise impeccable armor.

[@borarider669]

Nice catch. I always thought i was the only one to notice that 👌🏻

[@hehussle7319]

Love the back and forth on dominance between Hani and Ed. Especially how Ed tries to set the tone by skipping the pleasantries and not sitting down Hani gestures for him to.

[@pugthepug7910]

that means uh "too fukin bad" lmao love that line

[@yousephkarouni9540]

Funnily enough - that is what it means in certain contexts

[@aidos6127]

Actually, what "insa" means is "forget it", literally.

[@MohammedAlRefae34]

Beautiful Movie indeed! All actors were on spot and played their rules beautifully. "Insa" is an Arabia word means "Forget it" however we use it in so many different ways like the way Hani uses it in this scene which means "do not even dream about it" also can be used to describe a beautiful thing like a car for example it means "I can't even describe how beautiful the car is" also used to end a discussion or not enter it in the first place. However, sometimes it is a polite way to say "fuck off" or "impossible". The only thing that annoyed me in this movie is the way they portrayed Amman (the capital of Jordan) which was the total opposite of the reality unless they focused only on portraying refugees camps.

[@zarbon002002]

Aman seems beautiful in the movie. The hotels pictured in the movie especially at the end where hani tells Ferris he won't help him seems beautiful. Would love to visit aman

[@nikosgreek352]

Forget about it!

[@aritragupta4182]

If I remember correctly, most of the Amman action revolves around the safehouse where a large number of the terrorists were hiding. Would make sense that it saw a high turnover, i.e. people not staying for very long and new folks turning up frequently. That would be noticed in an urban setting. Makes a lot more sense in a refugee camp setting, which people may be moving through all the time.

[@chrisdiver6224]

Friend, I would be interested in your impression of Hani's personality and approach as a Jordanian in his position. Mark Strong's portrayal of him impressed me deeply. His American counterparts came across as the cocky representatives of a young nation which thinks it owns the world. We are simply the new British in the region, the neocolonialists who with them overthrew the Iranian government in '54 for their oil setting the current disaster in motion. I can't believe Hani would have supported that endless kind of interference, yet he is working with the Americans. Farris is unusual because he begins to learn Hani's methods, falls for Iesha (sp?), and loves the Middle East. This borders on subversive for a CIA operative because he seems to be questioning the manner and ultimate aims of the Americans. A film following up this one with the same people would have been interesting!

[@Col.J.N.W.SinghKhandala]

​@@chrisdiver6224Your concluding paragraph detailing the storyline is explained beautifully by Di Caprio's character in the final scene when he signs off from the C.I.A. to remain in Jordan forever (almost) with his new found love - Aisha. Whereby he also sends a friendly warning to his now sudden ex-boss (owing to Di Caprio's on the spot resignation) on calling himself "America" thereby staking claim to the representation of an entire country albeit in his puny individual capacity. You are absolutely right in your observation of the dubious and downright hideous intelligence methods deployed by the C.I.A. during its early years which gave rise to the many long standing conflicts of the world that continue to drag on even today with many of those conflicts' tributaries having developed and flowing in multiple mutated directions virtually impossible to backtrack upon in an effort to set them right in order to restore world order.

[@agijatta1998]

This, meeting is epic. It shows how relationships in intelligence are also, there's the part where ed tells hani that they are partners.

[@gregcosta6965]

Is there a more sophisticated looking Arab than Hani? intelligent, witty, sharp dressed. He sensed that Ferris was on his side that's why he looked at him before he said "insa".

[@shakkazulu7870]
