MCT:May 7, 2008Let me start off by saying, "F*ck the President!" With that said, wow, Is it really this crazy in Iraq?? One thing I want to know is how accurate is this movie, and how much of it is just the Hollywood version??
I don't know why it was so hard for me to watch this movie. I got choked up a few times. Actually cried once. So my main question would be: How do you go from being a trained killer to being a normal person again? How easy is it to flip that switch?
I just wanted to also mention that I have nothing but the upmost respect for the men and women in the US Army. Thank you for doing your job!! -
MCT:May 4, 2008Some good performances from a film which seems to have been overlooked in the UK, however the 'road movie' section seems to fizzle out very quickly and I was a bit surprised by the ending.

So this movie was actually really good..but yet it is really hard to rate. The acting and direction of this movie was a good 4.5 or 5..To watch it again or not is a different story.

MCT:April 30, 2008I don't support war. I'm sorry. Nor do I support the war or anything about it.
What I liked about this movie was the power of the mind in realizing that you are basically screwed and actually have no options. The country owns you. The government owns you. It doesn't matter how respected you are, people can certainly turn their backs on you.
The relationship between Brandon and Steve felt authentic, especially the scene in the cemetary.
This film truly is a message to the uninformed about what any form of the forces can do, whether it be fair or not.
Nothing is great about war. -
MCT:April 28, 2008This film has a great premise and then does not deliver. This potentially good movie, turns sour and doesn't really go anywhere through most of it. The plot gets really off base near the end and tries to go in a few directions before being taken to a jarring ending.

chick just showed the problem of the movie it's propaganda for the uninformed, those who don't know what's going on take the word of more negative propaganda, I have heard soldiers don't like this movie either, or at least a couple I talked to on Yahoo. This is just more of Hollywood trying to bias people on what to think and using their popularity to force political opinons on people.

I really liked this movie but it made me realize that those troops have no reason to be in Iraq and this war just needs to be over.

More liberal mega-crap, it will bomb like all the other anti-american crap movies that hollywood keeps trying to make about iraq and then fade into forgetful oblivion. O man I just realized this is the same director that made that other propoganda gay rights movie, she must be straight from the Michael Moore school of PROPOGANDA U.

From the director of Boys Dont Cry, we can just expect something quite raw. My only problem is the poster, looks like a straith-to-DVD film, well I know, its not the official, it looks like something fan-made.

I hope this movie sheds some light on the hypocrisy and the immoralities of war!

Anything with Chan in it, I will watch! Hes such an awesome guy on and off screen! Wish more actors had his sweet, caring, down to earth personality!
