Almost worth watching.

Rating: 5/10 (20 January 2014)

The movie itself is OK. Acting is good, except for villagers, that performed less than mediocre. But the plot itself doesn't make you empathize with main characters. Professional soldiers of US invading army are trying to neutralize a local Afghanistan fighter commander known for killing 19 US marines in an ambush. And US army lose 19 more men in this attempt. If US soldiers would serve in a conscript army, all the blame for this failure would rest on a shoulders of US government and army commanders. But these men are professional army soldiers, they are paid for their services, and they resemble mercenaries much more than war heroes fighting for right cause. This really gives a trouble feeling with main characters.
