-----------------------------------------------------

When his army unit was ambushed during the first Gulf War, Sergeant Raymond Shaw saved his fellow soldiers just as his commanding officer, then-Captain Ben Marco, was knocked unconscious. Brokering the incident for political capital, Shaw eventually becomes a vice-presidential nominee, while Marco is haunted by dreams of what happened -- or didn't happen -- in Kuwait. As Marco (now a Major) investigates, the story begins to unravel, to the point where he questions if it happened at all. Is it possible the entire unit was kidnapped and brainwashed to believe Shaw is a war hero as part of a plot to seize the White House? Some very powerful people at Manchurian Global corporation appear desperate to stop him from finding out.

Denzel Washington is one of my favorite actors now. He's got this charismatic gift in his powers of expression.

The story sometimes seems crazy, such as brain implants which control patient's memory center.

But It's even more scary that this could be happening anywhere in the world since the technology advancement in the last few centuries has made almost anything possible.

We can also feel how the U.S. election campaign hugely involves "MONEY and AUTHORITY", which sometimes have more power beyond the number of votes each candidate gets.

If you like Denzel Washington, you would like to watch this one as well.
