A sort of"ripped-from-the-headlines"story which does not necessarily praise the heroics of Valerie Plame (Naomi Watts) or that of her husband Joe Wilson (Sean Penn) Although there is a modicum of suspence in the first act after Plame is outed as being a CIA operative by the Bush administration (was she "Bush-whacked"? ), the film provides its drama from the marriage that appears to be slowly unravelling. The story contains historical significance because it presents some of the first evidence that Bush and Chaney were lying about the presence of WMDs in Sadam Hussein's Iraq.
