Negative Positive
Title: Amateur war film
Review: I just rented this movie last night and I was very disappoint. The pacing was very slow, it took more than an hour for the main characters to finally make into Afghanistan. Unlike Full Metal Jacket, however, there wasn't a whole lot of character developing, just a bunch of random events. There were couple of good moments but it wasn't enough to overcome the bad. People who think the battle scenes are realistic needs to watch more modern war films like Band of Brothers and Flags of our fathers. The battle scenes felt very amateurish, the Mujaheddins attack at walking pace like they are strolling at the park, and the characters likes to shoot wildly in the open without cover and bunch up together. I was going to add this to my collection but I think I'll skip it.
