Aroview: Media drama set in war-time Iraq tracking a gutsy group of CNN journalists who are among the few to choose to remain in Baghdad to capture the unfolding carnage on the eve of the Gulf War. Based on the courageous true exploits of a group of CNN reporters who risked their lives to feed live images of the unfolding war to the outside world.

An important story to tell, made even more topical by the current state of international affairs and the amount of press risking their lives to report on the situation. A realistic portrayal of reportage in the midst of a war zone with well thought out cast selection and a gripping storyline.

I find this review offensive! I don’t agree with this review. I agree with this review.
2 stars (Good Try) There have been quite a few of these "reporters on the front line" dramas and this one rates well against the rest. Having talent like Keaton, Carter and Suchet helps. ~Tubbs
