mess to say the least

Rating: 3/10 (1 December 2014)

very, very shallow movie pretending to be what is not. almost no story, so many clichés, so many stupid mistakes. Oscar candidate? uh please - acting is not incredibly bad but almost. what is the message of this movie? war is hell and it is dehumanizing or something like that. seen before and in much better way. action scenes are visually decent and we can briefly enjoy tiger but that is all. unrealistic, poorly researched. last half hour is just horrible mess. OK sound is good... cant they (studio, director, producer) find some kind of consultant or some military person and then avoid silliness at least to some degree. yes i know probably there was somebody here and nobody listen to him (director - he is just an old fart, will do it my way because i am so smart and i know what audience wants). another missed opportunity - it could have been so much better.
