Colibel Terrible acting, screenplay and direction.

Softwing Most undeservingly overhyped movie of all time??

CommentsXp Best movie ever!

Aedonerre I gave this film a 9 out of 10, because it was exactly what I expected it to be.

Ruben de Jong What makes this documentary so good is the human factor and the amount of guts of the film crew. The fighting scenes are filmed in the best way i have ever seen, this is how it goes. This may seem odd to say this, but as the son of a veteran this means a lot. People still have that "Hollywood idea" about a firefight, and about war as a whole.The camera work is very good, the quality is very high and the close ups of the faces tell the whole story. The scene near the end when they escape encirclement the relief can be seen all over their faces. The kids waving and smiling are so in contrast with what these men have seen, that really showed war in his true nature: Chaos and extremes.

Fordifyed This film follows the soldiers in an Afghan national battalion as they live and fight amidst confusion in what seems like a futile environment.This isn't about politics, religion, or action and melodrama. It is about the people fighting for what remains of their country. We see on the news chaotic scenes of gun fire in the middle east and its easy to forget that there are people behind those guns with family and friends. After watching this film, I'm left wondering that if the same documentary could be made in the Taliban camp; would it really be that much different. In my opinion that's what makes this film powerful; strip away all the ideology and hate, and what's left is the same stuff me and you are made of.
