analysis of 'lord of war' political thriller

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9d0d6qgsvTw&feature=related

the movie follows Yuri Orlov, an arms dealer supplying weapons to Liberia. Pursued by an Interpol agent he begins to question he morality of his work.

The movie uses a LOT of narration to tell the story at hand. this makes the viewer feel more involved as it seems that the main character is talking to the viewer and makes you feel almost in place with this man. there is very also very little music in the movie which further adds to the sence of realism. there are also a lot of long shots (for instance the opening sequence camera) which means that the viewer isn't alienated by to many camera angles.
