UNCOVERED: THE WAR ON IRAQ
GENERATES ABUNDANT PRAISE

Los Angeles, CA (October 4, 2004) - Director Robert Greenwald's documentary feature, Uncovered: The War On Iraq, has received abundant critical praise. L.A. Entertainment, Inc's, CEO, Jim Ervin, acts as co-composer and music supervisor for the film's soundtrack. The feature chronicles the Bush administration's determined quest to invade Iraq following the events of September 11, 2001.

• The New York Times - David Kehr: "Robert Greenwald's sober, meticulous film patiently chronicles the ever-shifting case for war made by President Bush and his close advisers."

• TV Guide's Movie Guide - Ken Fox: "Strongly supports what critics of the Bush administration's unilateral Iraq policy have claimed all along."

• Seattle Times - Tom Keogh: "Uncovered is like a trial lawyer's summation during a lengthy case in which allegations are familiar but their context is not."

• Entertainment Today - Brent Simon: "Clearheaded, practical, and plenteous in evidence but smart and confident enough not to berate you."

• Detroit News - Tom Long: "Any person voting in this year's presidential election owes it to America's future to see this film."

• Los Angeles Daily News - Bob Strauss: "Even though Greenwald has an extensive Hollywood background, his showmanship abandons him when he takes on partisan projects such as this one."

• Film Journal International - Doris Toumarkine: "Unlike the indulgent Moore, Greenwald here dispenses with manipulation, theatrics, and tricks, letting his often-angry experts wax convincingly."

• Chicago Tribune - Michael Wilmington: "If you've ever wondered why we got into the Iraq war and what still faces us there, this is the film that can explain it to you (even if you agree with Bush's policies)."

• Variety - Jay Weissberg: "A methodical case against the Bush administration's rationale for the war in Iraq - a calm, rational and utterly devastating point-by-point analysis."

• Los angeles Times - Kenneth Turan: "Starts in an unusually calm and measured way for a documentary critical of that particular military adventure. All antiwar docs, it turns out, are not cut from the same cloth."

• Minneapolis Star Tribune - Jeff Strickler: "This documentary makes an effective argument."

• Hollywood Reporter - Frank Scheck: "Provides compelling arguments that even those on the right wing of the political spectrum will be hard pressed to entirely refute."

• E! Online: "Methodically presents the Bush Administration's rationale for invading Iraq and then systematically dismantles it."

• San Francisco Chronicle - Jonathan Curiel: "A thorough indictment of the Bush administration's focus on Iraq."

• Washington Post - Ann Hornaday: "Smart, engaging discourse."

• New York Daily News - Jack Matthews: "A crisp historical document that is worth your time."

• Boston Globe - Wesley Morris: "The movie manages to slap some of the cynicism out of you."

• Christian Science Monitor - David Sterritt: "The result is memorable; viewing is mandatory."

• Des Moines Register - jeffrey Bruner: "Uncovered may not have the acerbic tone of Moore's Fahrenheit, but it's every bit a damning indictment."

• Denton Record Chronicle - Boo Allen: "Director Greenwald backs up his claim that the media acted like Bush administration lap dogs in covering the lea-up to a bogus war."
