a pointless film

Rating: 4/10 (8 June 2004)

this is a mess.... there is no historical background given... i spent the entire film wondering why the troops had been sent in... the characters were fairly two dimensional... i couldn't stand the bible thumping hypocritical moore with his praying........the most interesting person was the cameraman and the film didn't really focus on him at all...the sam neill character which should and could have been fleshed out had about 6 lines...and it was supposed to be about soldiers looking after each other but there was no form of relationship or attachment to be seen anywhere...all in all a poor effort and a gory waste of time..
