disappointment film

Rating: 6/10 (6 February 2015)

It was a disappointment film to watch. Story of how a sharp shooter made it through the IRAQ war. I wondered who was right and who was at the wrong side of the fence. Are bigger manipulators playing both sides or was their fight justifiable? Validity of igniting the war in Iraq now we all know was triggered by confusing pictures that Bush and Blair drew for their own people. Those who were told Iraq had the Weapons of mass destruction. A Moslem nation somehow related to Osama Bin laden. On the other hand we had patriotic Iraqis ( some call them insurgents) who also felt the invasion of their homeland by foreign powers is worth fighting for. Two sharp shooters both protecting their own kind with so many similarities. Unfortunately apart from a few minutes of addressing the root of the problem the theme of the movie mostly was spinning around brotherhood and eye for an eye and loyalty of soldiers towards each other. In general I was expecting a better movie from Eastwood than this.
