What really bothered me about this movie were all the good reviews it got. This was an extremely boring movie. I think I know why it got good reviews though, all these ridiculous movie critics care more about the emotional side of war than the actual fighting of it. Yes, war is tough, it brings out some crazy emotions in people, but that’s not all it does. Every single person in this movie had some major character “hang-up” which caused them to be dysfunctional. It was so overblown it was ridiculous. On top of that, the pace of this movie would make a snail bored. How many times do they have to flashback to some farm field in Iowa? It takes forever for anyone to say anything or do anything in this movie. The only redeeming quality of this film was the cinematography. It did look good. (and the pace did pick up a bit toward the end)
