what an odd movie.
on the other hand it's the one of the few war movies i've seen that actually shows what happens in a war, which is insane death, not being a 'tough guy'. and it also shows a bit of all three sides of things. all respect for that. also props for (almost) leaving out the political situation of usa out for once.
on the other hand, it's quite poorly directed and full of 'perfect' people, perfect soldiers, perfect christians...saints...which gives a completely wrong image...
i don't know what to say except that it got my attention enough to think i will read the books and leave the movie be.
