Syriana

Big oil means big money. Very big money. And that fact unleashes corruption that stretches from Houston to Washington to the Mideast, and ensnares industrialists, princes, spies, politicos, oilfield laborers and terrorists in a deadly, deceptive web of move and countermove. This lightning-paced, whip-smart action thriller grips your mind and nerves with an intensity that doesn't let go for an instant.
