Reviews
Absolutely the worst movie.
I really wanted to like this movie. I feel terribly cynical trashing it, and that's why I'm giving it a middling 5. Actually, I'm giving it a 5 because there were some superb performances.
There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes
This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.
It was compelling at first, I'll admit that, but then I saw red flags. First of all, working class guys like these three don't act like this at all. The transition from normal everyday soldier to complete screw-up is too ridiculous to believe. One soldier's memory is just fine in one scene, the next, he has become this complete screw-up with PTSD and trouble remembering things. Then he ends up looking for drugs in the hood, attacking his wife, destroying his apartment, just ridiculous stuff.I mean, life is rough, but you have to have severe mental problems to screw up as much as the characters in this movie. I know a few vets around town and they're not all screw-ups coming back to a life of pure misery. It's just ridiculous.
I didn't know what to expect when I decided to watch this on a flight home but I am glad I did. I know the feeling having served and coming back into civilian life. It wasn't easy. As I watched, I felt every emotion the soldiers felt. I have had what they portrayed. I have asked my wife to see it as there things that are hard to say when one has PTSD. This movie shows not what happens to just American Soldiers but Soldiers around the world. If you don't know anybody in any Armed Forces you may not get this movie; cause you won't appreciate it. If you do, it's an insight to our struggles and governments lack of resource for funding to help those who have served to give a Democracy the freedom and protection people think is free.
I hate to say one scene makes a movie but the dogfighting crap was completely uncalled for if your a dog lover you will hate this.
A witness to someone in a similar situation I can confess to the accurate reality of this film. Kudos to the writers and producers.....A job well done.
