One of the Better (if not best) Iraq-based film

Rating: 8/10 (14 June 2009)

Interesting view on the war in Iraq by taking the American bomb squad crew as main characters. This makes the feature original compared to other Iraq-based films. Actors in this feature where very good, the feature covered 3 members of a bomb squad performing bomb-diffusing missions in Iraq. It showed how hostile the situations are in Iraq and how difficult the communication is when not everybody speaks the same language. The scenes and landscapes where realistic and the way the feature was directed made it less like a action film and more like a documentary. Explosion scenes are well put together, seemed like they used special slow motion/high frame rate camera's for nice effects. One of the best features about the Iraq war in my opinion.
