In 1979, the American embassy in Iran was invaded by Iranian revolutionaries and several Americans were taken hostage. However, six managed to escape to the official residence of the Canadian Ambassador and the CIA was ordered to get them out of the country. With few options, exfiltration expert Tony Mendez devised a daring plan: create a phony Canadian film project looking to shoot in Iran and smuggle the Americans out as its production crew. With the help of some trusted Hollywood contacts, Mendez created the ruse and proceeded to Iran as its associate producer. However, time was running out with the Iranian security forces closing in on the truth while both his charges and the White House had grave doubts about the operation themselves.
Leave your thoughts about Argo.
| Fort Worth WeeklyKristian M. LinIf the aim is to draw a parallel between the artifice of Hollywood and the spy trade, Argo never quite comes together, but it is a well-executed thriller that tells a true story in entertaining fashion. |
| Christianity TodayCamerin CourtneyI can't remember the last time I was in a movie theater audience that clapped. Twice. Even I clapped. It's that good. |
| CinemaBlend.comKatey RichThe emotional catharsis of Argo isn't what happens onscreen, but the sheer knowledge that the creaky old moviemaking system has put together something this crowd-pleasing and great. |
| Independent on SundayPeter PophamAffleck, who directs as well as stars, conjures a denouement every bit as stomach-shredding as Skyfall's. |
| AALBC.comKam WilliamsAn edge-of-your-seat thriller not to be forgotten at Oscar time! |
| PopMattersCynthia FuchsWhen Tony (Ben Affleck) lands in Tehran and trains the frightened Americans to play their parts as a Canadian film crew, Argo compares the ruses run by governments and movie studios. |
| Quad City Times (Davenport, IA)Linda CookA brilliant thriller that's based on a historical incident, 'Argo' is one of the best films of 2012. |
| The Sun (UK)Alex ZaneIf you're a nailbiter, bring gloves, because the suspense will see you reach your knuckles. |
| Movie TalkJason BestAffleck skilfully turns the screw of suspense, gaining added traction from an extremely convincing recreation of the setting and period. |
| Daily Express (UK)Henry FitzherbertAffleck the director is utterly sure-footed with an instinctive feel for characterization, tension and pacing as he builds the action towards a nail-biting climax. |
