On November 4, 1979, Iranian militants stormed the American embassy in Tehran and captured dozens of American hostages, sparking a 444-day ordeal and a quake in global politics still felt today. But there's a little-known footnote to the crisis: six Americans escaped. And a mid-level agent named Antonio Mendez devised an ingenious yet incredibly risky plan to rescue them.

Requires Blu-ray player.

COMMUNITY REVIEWS

Good Movie submitted by jarroyo on June 20, 2013, 12:54pm I really enjoyed this movie. It was pretty suspenseful, but in a good way. The actors did a great job. It is an interesting topic and good movie.

really good submitted by steelersfan1 on June 24, 2013, 1:28pm good storyline and suspenseful

Watch it! submitted by monipate on June 27, 2013, 11:02pm Despite all the hype, I wasn't expecting much because the idea of Ben Affleck directing and starring in a movie was too much. I was wrong. I couldn't stop thinking about this movie for days after watching it. It's just thoroughly well-made and everyone should watch it.

Excellent film submitted by beeniepie on July 13, 2013, 7:43pm Despite taking many liberties with history, the film had an amazing ensemble of actors and well executed. Ben Affleck is an excellent director.

Awesome submitted by mysterio on July 18, 2013, 2:39pm this movie deserved the awards it got.

Thriller submitted by frances on July 22, 2013, 9:47pm Argo is a great movie about a true story. I am only 12 years old but i still really liked it.

Great Movie even with the extra drama submitted by wendylv on August 23, 2013, 6:18am I hate it when Hollywood takes a true story and embellishes the facts to make it more dramatic. The true story is amazing enough! It's like the producers think the audience is too dumb to sit through a movie without a car chase at the end. And then you're left to wonder which parts of the story are true. However, even with the added faux-drama, this is still a very enjoyable and well-done movie with great performances and a great story that may inspire you to look up the factual account of what happened at the American embassy in Iran in 1979.

Keeps you sitting on edge of seat submitted by chrisp35aa on August 29, 2013, 1:51pm This movie is very suspenseful (even if you know the outcome already).

better submitted by nicenora2371 on August 30, 2013, 4:57pm better in blu ray

GOOD! submitted by purplelily on July 31, 2014, 10:12pm Action packed + Ben Affleck + humor + suspense = a great movie!

excellent movie submitted by 21621031390949 on August 11, 2016, 9:16pm A well-made, thought-provoking movie

Loved it! submitted by yufamily on August 12, 2019, 8:14pm Fast thinking on your feet...

Fantastic movie submitted by pk on August 29, 2020, 8:43pm Even if you know the story of Americans stranded in Iran during the Iranian Hostage Crisis, this film will not disappoint. The intensity does not let up throughout the movie! A great look at some history (with a little artistic license) that I did not know!

entertaining, but it hasn't really held up as memorable, to me submitted by lisa on July 29, 2022, 12:18am I too learned from it, though. So there's that.

Thrilling submitted by brooksza on August 28, 2022, 9:08pm The last half hour of this movie is thrilling and tense
