  • The Green Zone (Arabic: , al-munṭaqah al-ḫaḍrā’) is the most common name for the International Zone of Baghdad. It is a area of central Baghdad, Iraq, that was the governmental center of the Coalition Provisional Authority and remains the center of the international presence in the city. Its official name beginning under the Iraqi Interim Government is the International Zone, though Green Zone remains the most commonly used term. The contrasting Red Zone refers to parts of Baghdad immediately outside the perimeter, but was also loosely applied to all unsecured areas outside the off-site military posts. Both terms originated as military designations.
  • The Green Zone is the headquarters for the American Occupation Liberation of Iraq. The Green Zone boasts lush lawns, air conditioned buildings, swimming pools and even a Burger King; so it will come as no surprise that it is the favorite haunt of journalists and diplomatic envoys to Baghdad. The Green Zone is a barometer of the political climate in Iraq. When everything is calm in the Green Zone, everything is calm in Baghdad, and that means everything is calm in Iraq! The Green Zone has been a peaceful place to live since 2002, so we can assume that things are on the right track in Iraq. Wait and see, in less than ten years they'll be selling holiday packages to Tikrit!
  • The key players in the film are General Mohammed Al-Rawi (Yigal Naor), who is hiding in Baghdad during the invasion of Iraq andU.S. Army Chief Warrant Officer Roy Miller (Matt Damon), a Mobile Exploitation Team (MET) leader who is searching for Iraqi weapons of mass destruction. Miller finds that the majority of the intel given to him is inaccurate. Moreover, Miller's efforts to find the true story about the weapons are blocked by Pentagon official Clark Poundstone (Greg Kinnear). The cast also featuresBrendan Gleeson, Amy Ryan, Khalid Abdalla and Jason Isaacs.

  • The key players in the film are General Mohammed Al-Rawi (Yigal Naor), who is hiding in Baghdad during the invasion of Iraq andU.S. Army Chief Warrant Officer Roy Miller (Matt Damon), a Mobile Exploitation Team (MET) leader who is searching for Iraqi weapons of mass destruction. Miller finds that the majority of the intel given to him is inaccurate. Moreover, Miller's efforts to find the true story about the weapons are blocked by Pentagon official Clark Poundstone (Greg Kinnear). The cast also featuresBrendan Gleeson, Amy Ryan, Khalid Abdalla and Jason Isaacs. The film was produced by Working Title Films, with financial backing from Universal Pictures, StudioCanal, Relativity Media, Antena 3 Films and Dentsu. Principal photography for the film project began during January 2008 in Spain, later moving to Morocco and the United Kingdom. Green Zone premiered at the Yubari International Fantastic Film Festival in Japan on February 26, 2010, and was released in Australia, Russia, Kazakhstan, Malaysia and Singapore on March 11, 2010, followed by a further 10 countries the next day, among them the United States, United Kingdom and Canada. Although the film generally received positive critical reviews, it was a box office flop, as it cost $100 million to produce plus $40 million in marketing, while the global theatrical runs only gave $94,882,549 in gross revenue.
