@Andymc1983 The way it accurately depicts concussions suffered as a result of being close to IED blasts is something you don't see in movies too often. Some of the soldiers were completely out of it during the second half and forced to make life or death decisions in the midst of chaos..
@Andymc1983 It's laden with elite level heavies too - Everett McGill ("Anyone else think I fucked up?"), Peter Greene, Patrick Kilpatrick, Kurtwood Smith, Morris Chestnut and of course, Eric Bogosian!
@billyjarrettugh The revelatory use of Boots by Rudyard Kipling to underscore the tension. Oh Lord!
No moody cover of a classic song replete with breathy/speech impaired vocal here..
@Andymc1983 It's madness. We lived through these movies being savaged by critics (rightfully so) 20 odd years ago - eaten bread is long forgotten I guess.
@Andymc1983 I'd wager it is, solely on the tone of his social media post on Monday ("I hope the viewer will keep an open mind and remember there are 2 sides to every story) and the fact that he attempted to buy the doc from Netflix prior to release in an attempt to bury it.
@Andymc1983 And an incredible tie-in music number courtesy of Jon Bon Jovi. They wanted to use Wanted: Dead or Alive in the movie and Jon said, "hold my beer lads, I'll write ye a better one..."
@arvofart How about Quija: Origin of Evil? A chilling sequel by Mike Flanagan that completely outdid the original. He clearly understood the assignment.
