MCT:May 14, 2008This is the most convincing depiction of how fucked up war is, more than anything else I've ever seen.

MCT:May 10, 2008
Pretty amazing film about a war that had more to do with the men than the war. Great acting, the cinematography was a mix of poetic and gritty, hand-held . . . really pretty damn good film.

MCT:May 10, 2008it felt too schizophrenic on how it actually felt to be a good or decent war film...i understand that many director's say they want to stay true to depicting events, but you often choose a project of this caliber based one feeling one way or another, you are for war...or against war....if you choose your side, it makes your movie better, it doesn't matter which side you are on, you still have to choose

MCT:May 9, 2008This was a mediocre attempt at showing what Marines went through during Desert Storm. The relationships between the various Marines comes across as genuine during most of the film. The way it showed the psychological of war on young minds was done well. Jake Gyllenhaal seemed to show real emotion. I've never really liked Jamie Foxx all that much and his performance in this movie didn't do anything to boost my opinion of his acting talents. The whole film felt like just another run-of-the-mill war movie with just a little bit of actual action thrown in.

MCT:May 7, 2008despite the nice DENNIS HAYSBERT taking a poo cameo, its best to give it a miss. check out THREE KINGS or FULL METAL JACKET again instead

Excelente! Ótima fotografia e trilha sonora. Um filme de guerra que nao fica somente em tiros e mortes. Mostra a frustração dos soldados diante da falta de ação no campo de batalha, durante a primeira guerra do Iraque :)
SOu fã pelo Jake Gyllenhaal!

My friends told me not to see it, but being me i ignored them and im glad i did. Its a war movie, but the main character doesent get a single kill. Its a movie that you hate to admit, portrays the raw truth of a real war.
