Based on true events, "Argo" chronicles the life-or-death covert operation to rescue six Americans, which unfolded behind the scenes of the Iran hostage crisis--the truth of which was unknown by the public for decades. On November 4, 1979, as the Iranian revolution reaches its boiling point, militants storm the U.S. embassy in Tehran, taking 52 Americans hostage. But, in the midst of the chaos, six Americans manage to slip away and find refuge in the home of the Canadian ambassador. Knowing it is only a matter of time before the six are found out and likely killed, a CIA "exfiltration" specialist named Tony Mendez (Affleck) comes up with a risky plan to get them safely out of the country. A plan so incredible, it could only happen in the movies.

...inzwischen ist ja klar, dass Ben es als Regisseur echt draufhat - also wird der hier gewiss auch mal geschaut, zumal stark besetzt und von der Story her durchaus interessant.

Kommt bei Kritikern und Zuschauern gut an, der Film...
An even bigger story this weekend was the fantastic hold for Ben Affleck's political thriller Argo (Warner Bros.), which remained in second place with $16.6 million, down just 15% from its opening weekend. It has grossed $43.2 million in ten days and the movie doing this well and getting such strong word-of-mouth business almost guarantees it to be a player during awards season. (comingsoon.net)
