During the war in Lebanon a single tank and a unit of paratroopers are sent on a mission in a hostile town. Short review, basic movie info, trailer and full movie Lebanon 2009 online free.



This is one of the best war movies ever! At least according to the many film critics. Joshua Rothkopf (TIME OUT NY) called it - "The Das Boot of tank movies". Other renowned films critics used superlatives as well to describe this masterpiece. This is nothing what one could expect and what is even more strange the movie is a co-production between Israel, Lebanon and Germany. One of the few movies that every fan of the war genre should not miss to watch.

  A professor and two of his students and a journalist that interviews a young congressman are in the middle of this movie. Their stories bring a strong moral lesson. Short review, basic movie info, trailer and full movie lions for lambs online free.


The movies is more based on ideas than on characters. This is so to speak "whats wrong with America" type of movie. Two students leave college to fight in Afghanistan. Soon after their arrival there they are wounded behind enemy lines triggering a series of events at home. The movie is full of great points and interesting dialogues. The actors are great as well, even Tom Cruise is excellent as the rising political star in Washington. All in all a strong recommendation to watch lions for lambs.

However, John Connor still believes that there is hope for the humans. Short review, basic movie info, trailer and full movie terminator: salvation online free.

Even though that it cannot be compared with the legendary part two it still is much better movie than the last sequel. Great special effects, Bale puts up a good performance as adult John Connor, but that`s where most of the compliments end. Even though it won`t be remembered for too long it`s still descent sci-fi war movie with few spectacular scenes.
