So here is the latest from the war movies, that hit the screen. My father was a huge fan of war movies and Sunday afternoons was his movie time, The Green Berets, Kelly’s Heroes, Apocalypse Now, Platoon, The Dirty Dozen and much more. There will always be a question of which movie is the greatest. For me, it is Apocalypse Now that stunned me for days and it still does. Many are still talking about Saving Private Ryan and 4th of July. Since my early teens was filled with my fathers war movies and M.A.S.H, (sighs and giggles), I left that genre for a long time. This movies popped up and I thought let’s give it a try.
So here we go, theme of courage, honor, brotherhood and codes. These brave men have a mission to get the most wanted Taliban. its hard not to watch a war movie without your political conviction. Does this movie have more than that? Does it have character and a storyline that goes with it? Based on a true story of these marines. this brings me to the question.
Was it worth watching?
Its a 7 out of 10
It was, it was good. They tried very desperately to give it more depth. Some scenes worked and some did not. Acton and drama and some codes of honor. If your feeling for some action and some depth in characters, please do watch it.
