Decent but somewhat unrealistic

Rating: 7/10 (15 February 2012)

I personally loved this movie. It was filled with thrills and suspense and it kept my attention the whole time. I thought the characters that needed to be were deep and the others were developed enough to keep the movie going. I do have to say that based on what I've read in other reviews and the impression I got myself it does pose a rather fantastical view of the army. I'm not very knowledgeable about army life or what these kinds of situations are actually like and dealt with, but I could still tell that the events created in this movie weren't very realistic. This was most obvious in the scene when James tells his team they're going to go after the bombers in the dark since I would assume that they would need to tell someone of higher command first before going off or would need more than just three people. Despite these somewhat noticeable flaws, I thought the movie was decent and a war movie I would recommend to my friends.
