It was emotional , that was the point of the movie, then the project was a success

Rating: 7/10 (21 January 2018)

The movie idea was really nice and original ,, mixing comedy with sensitive subjects like a soldier killed in Iraq is kinda tricky and could always make disturbance with the critics , yet i think in here the execution was careful and on point and bringing on some huge names excelled in both comedy and drama helped a lot .
The cast were all good, from the 3 veterans " Bryan Cranston, Laurence Fishburne and Steve Carell" to Washington and that colonel , as i said it helped a lot bringing these names, so between the critics the opinions were mostly in favor, but as i'v read lately in the box office it wasn't a hit , so i don't know what went wrong there, but still the movie was enjoyable.
Final thought,, the comedy is moderate but laughable ,and the drama was tense and emotional which what they intended,, so it is recommended.
