    Annorlunda film, kul att få se kriget från ett annat perspektiv. Bra skådespelare
  • February 1, 2008
    This movie had so much potential... but really did not deliver as much as I expected; it did, however, show an interesting and different perspective on war and its effect on veterans
  • January 27, 2008
    A little biased but a decent view on reality.
  • January 25, 2008
    Powerful film. Excellent cast and story.

  • January 20, 2008
    This was an okay movie. It was very long and drawn out. Not what I was expecting from it at all.

    I don't know why this movie got such a bad rating on IMDB. Maybe because it is politically delicate and also because some people may have thought this was supposed to be an action movie but it isn't. I have to agree that some acting is awkward and there are some clichés, but I ...( read more)say that it took a lot of guts to do a movie like this now. Playing those parts like that is difficult and the direction probably doesn't help. I think that this movie is worth seeing if you want to have a glimpse of what it is for soldiers when they come back from war. This is a glimpse of course, and this is hollywood so it is not supposed to show how it is for ALL soldiers, nor should it be a perfect depiction. That would be impossible.

    Unflinching drama about a group of soldiers returning home from the Iraq War and trying to get on with their lives. Starts off with a gripping battle scene, then settles down into a strong dramatic piece. Tends to get a little too much at times but still is compelling stuff. A st...( read more)rong cast featuring Samuel L. Jackson, Brian Presley, Chad Michael Murray, and a suprisingly good turn by Jessica Biel, who shows she is more than a pretty face.

    This film is about the American soldiers over in Iraq, how the war scarred them both physically, mentally, and emotionaly, and how they deal with it when they come back home. Great performances by Samuel L. Jackson, Jessica Biel, and Curtis Jackson a.k.a. 50 Cent. I think Brian P...( read more)resley had the best acting in the whole film, and it is really his first mainstream movie. Chad Michael Murray and Christina Ricci have very small roles, allthough Murray's character is very important in the film. Great directing by Irwin Winkler. Very sad movie, but it is tied up nicely at the end, by the three remaining main characters telling their different stories about what happened to them in Iraq.

    I don't give a damn what anyone says...this is shit that happens to soldiers when they come back. Not all of them...but look what young people go through and give up for us!
  • December 27, 2007
    Great Performances. Shows what some soldiers go through once they return
  • December 24, 2007
    Très belle scène d'action réaliste au début. Par la suite, ça devient beaucoup plus un débat sur la guerre et une histoire à propos des effets sur les anciens soldats. Quand même intéressant puisque pas pro-guerre, il reste que le débat n'est pas assez poussé.
  • December 23, 2007
    Begins with rather stale war scenes though the effort was there to make them harrowing was obviously lost in the editing booth, despite it´s "starry" actors with solid performances for the most part, works better as a TV movie than a cinematic experience, if it´s a modern war mov...( read more)ie you are after watch Black Hawk Down or The Kingdom, if you want a good drama, watch this one.
  • December 23, 2007
    lol awesome cast... gotta see it sometime
  • December 22, 2007
    Good insight into the lives of soldiers.
  • December 21, 2007
    Absolutley amazing! Everyone should see this! Gives an incredible perspective of veterans after the war is over.
  • December 20, 2007
    Very good movie filmed here in Spokane, WA
  • December 19, 2007
    yep i wan`t to see it
  • December 17, 2007
    thought it was going to have more war scenes but it was ok
  • December 16, 2007
    The beginning of the movie gave me the impression that I was going to be watching something like 'Black Hawk Down.' Man was I wrong.
    This is one of those well made, nothing new type of movies. Sure it deals with Iraq veterans but, the characters all play to character types tha...( read more)t have been established in better war movies from years ago. And since the character's are little more then character types; I found that I got bored of them twenty minutes before the movie ended.
  • December 15, 2007
    Very stupid, & boring!!!!!
  • December 15, 2007
    I actually really wasn't sure I wanted to watch this movie, but I am glad I did. I think it showed an honest approach on the different lifestyles & different thoughts of soliders when and if they make it home.

    I liked how all of the main characters faced different problems & e...( read more)ach found different solutions to fix those problems. This move did make me cry & whether or not you believe the war is right, you will have some kind of feelings after watching this movie.
  • December 15, 2007
    I LOVE CHAD MICHAEL MURRAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  • December 15, 2007
    if u want to sleep at this movie...i recommend it
  • December 14, 2007
    whether the movie itself is good or not, it is significant as a pioneer of exploring the life of veterans who experinced Iraq War, this significance is not merely concentrated on the impact of Iraq War,people can also make out a dark glimpse of what damage war can do more strongl...( read more)y than those war films in backgrounds of WW1 or WW2 since this movie demostrated reality in our comtemporary age.And Jessica Biel had an awesome performance!!
  • December 12, 2007
    What A Movie, Awesome!
  • December 11, 2007
    Horrible. I Was led To Believe That It Was About The War But Turned Out To Be About There Lives When They Get Home. Not Much Action And Rather Rediculous.
  • December 10, 2007
    nonsense....wish i could get back my hour and a half
  • December 10, 2007
    Very emotional movie about what soldiers go through after war time.
  • December 8, 2007
    I am just not sure if I am ready to see movies that are about the war yet. I mean I am hurting for these souls in this war, and their families, and everyone involved. I pray all the time for so so many different aspects of blessings for them that I do not want to put any negativi...( read more)ty in my heart, head, or soul that Hollywood is creating to make a buck from it. It just dont seem right to me now.
  • December 8, 2007
    Oh boy with this movie. At first this movie seems to be a war movie a-la black hawk down. But this movie takes a different turn. Home shows you the after math of doing your duty as a soldier. Only two actors save this movie from been only two stars. I recomend you rent this one b...( read more)ut return it the next day so you can get a dollar back in hollywood video.
  • December 7, 2007
    Its kind of slow. But I found it very interesting.
  • December 6, 2007
    The story follows a group of American soldiers as they come home from Iraq to Spokane, Wash., where they try to return to their normal lives in a nation that seems indifferent to their traumatic experience. Samuel Jackson and Jessica Biel turn in fine performances as veterans exh...( read more)ibiting honest behavior and heartfelt emotions. This Irwin Winkler directed film accurately points out, in an entertaining way, what the Iraq war is doing to fighting American soldiers and how the negative effects of an appalling event continue long after it occurs

    A total waste of talent
