Question

Just got back from this movie ,and have to say that it was pretty good.

Much more accurate than Hurt Locker.
The landscapes and wide shots are eerily accurate, it is like they shot it in downtown Baghdad.
The story is good, with a pretty visible political message, but they do not drub you over the head with it.

Really accurate depiction of the 2004-2005 climate

Fox news is calling it the most Anti-American movie ever made, and pointing out that it was made by a subsidiary of GE who also owns MSNBC.
It is like they are just learning that hollywood is very liberal.

pretty good movie,
One thing that my friend and I were noticing during the movie was that the uniforms were perfect. Insignia all correct, unit cohesion on patches etc.

I would suggest not seeing it though if you are overly sensitive to seeing things like US soldiers killing other US soldiers, or believe that there were WMD in Iraq.

I thought they said "Fahrenheit 9/11" was the most un-American.

no-it&#x27;s not anti-american.  nor is it a documentary.anyway, the first 3/5 was very good ... nice build up... conspiracy stuf...then next 1/5 ... it started coming off the railsthe last 1/5 was just awful.....  just lost all believability...  spoilers below..........spoiler..............spoiler!!.............spoiler!!.........suddenly the informant dude w/ one leg runs and manages to catch up w/ the general and Damon who had been running for blocks &amp; blocks.  btw, the general in his blazer who was smoking and looked like he hadn&#x27;t ran since basic training 30 years ago?  suddenly he&#x27;s outrunning a  soldier - and still in his coat?  that CIA agent  character was under-developed... all he ended up doing was yelling at a computer screen and taking phone calls.... the whole thing just fell apart in the last 10-15 mins for me.
