Argo is an amazing movie that is about the Operation Argo that America carried out in 1979 where the Iranian people take over an American Embassy but 6 diplomats escape and these 6 are chased on a manhunt. So Tony Mendez comes up with the idea or producing a fake science fiction movie to go and and get the 6 Americans Diplomats out of Iran alive. After seeing this movie, I have to say it 100% deserved the Oscar for best picture. Ben Affleck did a great job acting, directing, and producing. Alan Arkin completely deserved best supporting actor, he was absolutely hilarious but I can't make the call considering I haven't seen Django Unchained. Also the the actors who played the 6 American Diplomats were amazing. The most memorable quote from this movie is:
"Is the best bad idea you have? Yes sir, this is by far the best bad idea we have."
All in all this movie gets 9/10 stars because some of the Farsi that is spoken is translated onto the screen so you get confused at times. Also, if you don'y pat attention to the plot you will get easily lost.
