Lack of a real reaction and comradery in a pivotal moment

Rating: 6/10 (22 February 2017)

SPOILER ALERT! The movie overall is pretty well done but the lack of sympathy between the characters and for people in general is unrealistic. Whether or not these men hate the Germans would make no difference during Emma's death scene. The fact that these men just shared a meal and obviously this young teenager just had a moment with this girl would cause a totally different reaction than what was seen in the film. OK so if this kid was still getting locked up and not killing Germans I could understand the men treating him with contempt but they've watched him kill and fight along side them so if he wants to run over and remove bricks from a dead women he just slept with they would have never treated him that way. I understand they are battle hardened vets who have seen the horrors of war but they have American values instilled in them and they would have never through him to the ground and acted as if it was an o well type of moment. This was a very tragic death and obviously these 2 women treated them fairly well especially the young man and brad Pitt and to act the way they did was unreal. Again I understand they've been through hell and back over and over again but the reaction depicted made me write this review because it honestly just bugs me to make them act this way. Maybe I'm overreacting but it just felt odd and I think that's even why they did a follow up scene with an apology to the young kid because if they didn't you'd feel no sympathy for these men because they have no sympathy for anyone not even each other. As a man coming from a family of veterans they have told me many stories and there are times to be tough and show little remorse but the one thing that holds men close together and makes them want to fight is the understanding of each other emotions and noticing moments when u show empathy for a tragedy. They've told me you can't do it all the time or else you'd be withering in sadness the whole war but a moment such as that would make the men pull the kid up not knock him to the ground because that's only going to effect his fighting. Sorry for the overreaction but just had to get that off my chest.
