While Hoffman takes the acting honors, I found Hanks believable and Roberts mysterious, so I guess I don't really have many problems with the acting, although I never really got into Roberts' head, although maybe the fact that both the Hanks and Roberts characters are Texans may again refer ironical....

Charlie Wilson's War follows the titular Congressman (Tom Hanks) and his efforts to support the Afghan mujahideen during the Soviet-Afghan War in the 1980s.
The Gnat
Overall this is a film that does a good job of showing what it wants to show in a fairly entertaining manner..
