Rating: 3/5 -- as a dissection of injustice and inhumanity, Ghosts of Abu Ghraib is forthright and unsparing, and its message is a worthy one Full Review

An essential declaration of the truth behind that cliché: Taking the gloves off is no guarantee the job will get done; it is a guarantee that you'll get your hands dirty. Full Review

... the real lesson of Ghosts is that torture coarsens the torturer. We end up screaming at ourselves. Full Review

Not only does the film thoroughly and skillfully explain the context in which something as heinous as Abu Ghraib could happen, it attempts to understand the psychology of those involved.

In the words of both the soldiers stationed in Abu Ghraib and, more heart-wrenchingly, some of the prison's inmates, we get a picture of horror and humiliation carried out in the fog of war.

Product Description:

Director Rory Kennedy crafts an affecting documentary for HBO with this look at the events in an Iraqi prison at Abu Ghraib. The prison came into the spotlight in 2003 after startling photographs of abuse by U.S. authorities were leaked to the media. Kennedy examines the evidence and talks to both military personnel and people who were imprisoned at Abu Ghraib.
