This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.

I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.

My review will be pretty short. Hollywood is nothing but the tool in the hands of the US foreign politics. Of course, the nuclear weapon is from the former Soviet Union, the country which should be depicted as the place without any control of its nuclear arsenal, and you can just go and take as many bombs as you want, for free. Even children in Russia plays with nukes, they are widely used as the play tool. Then, there is a SERBIAN GUY, of course, who will have his revenge to the West (which is REALLY guilty for the Bosnian and all wars in former Yugoslavia, because it recognized the rebellion republic as the independent states IN THE MIDDLE OF THE CIVIL WAR) for every Serb, Croat and Muslim death in the civil war. HOW STUPID! Serbian people are CHRISTIANS, that guy who wanted to blow up OUN center in New York, that SERB, it is not the part of his religion. He is going to hell for killing, it doesn't matter who he is going to kill. Why didn't Hollywood chose A MUSLIM? They go to Jenet, their version of paradise, if they die for the faith, for the right thing, for Islam. The end result, to revenge to the West for every Serb, Muslim and Croat would also gained. BUT NO! SERB MUST BE BAD BOYS, in every occasion. ALWAYS. Because we didn't want to obey to the West plans. We wanted to preserve our country, Yugoslavia (the same way as America wanted to stay complete, this is the reason why America had its civil war, to stop Confederation southern countries to go out of America), but the West didn't want that. Shame on you, Hollywood.

Nicole kid-man was so sexy but clooney was looking gay & a wannabe tough guy.Russians are portrayed as bad guys again in this who wants to launch a nuclear attack on USA but why because the main bad guy got betrayed & wanted revenge .i really don't care for stuff like this anymore because the only movie i lover of bombs is broken arrow of john travolta.the climax of the movie is bad & rushed & you'll see why i love movies but this ant-Russian & all that stuff is gone too far.after 9-11 a lot of films came out with more concepts like the plus point was that they have Afghanistan & Pakistan & terrorist groups stories & osama you know what i am saying.i cant understand clooney this guy acts the same in every film & his hairstyle also never change.my rating of the peacemaker is 2/10 watch only for Nicole kid-man.

Two trains crash somewhere in Russia, one carrying a nuclear payload.A nuclear explosion follows the crash and the world is on alert...However, White House nuclear expert Dr. Julia Kelly doesn't think it was an accident.Special Operations Intelligence Officer Colonel Thomas Devoe doesn't think so either. Together they must unravel a conspiracy that goes from Europe to New York, to stop a terrorist who has no demands...before Out of Sight made Clooney officially the coolest man on the planet, he was the one from ER who seemed desperate to be a huge movie star.A few of his movies, including this one, were so high profile, but so poorly received and average at the box office.It's because they seem so unique with the synopsis, but the execution is so average. Here Clooney has a bit of a swagger wearing white trousers and smirking at Kidman, who justs gets in a fluster every now and again.Sounds like the perfect recipe for a romantic comedy. But this is about Nuclear Weapons going missing. And the film drags in places.One of dreamworks first releases, it does have its moments. The car chase is quite good, and a siege on a bridge is visually impressive, as is the claustrophobic feel of the final act.But for a film that is over two hours long, these really seem few and far between, when the rest of the time we are treated to heated debate.The two stars are good, and you can tell Clooney will be big, It's a good job he met Soderbergh though. Heaven knows what would have happened to his career otherwise.

The main problem with this movie is the notion of a Bosnian Serb as a nuclear terrorist, especially in the United States. There's just no historical basis for it. If he was just a madman acting alone, driven to madness by the death of his daughter, it might have made a little more sense, but he had organized help in the movie. The notion of any kind of organized Bosnian Serb terrorist attack against the U.N., also resulting in the deaths of large numbers of American citizens, flies in the face of historical reality. If the terrorists had been suicidal Islamist terrorists, it would have actually been a bit more believable, at least from a historical standpoint, although certainly offensive to some. This movie is deeply flawed, from a political perspective, and ultimately comes across as a piece of political propaganda.
