Sub par directing and writing, but action packed war movie
27 February 2022
This war movie is written and directed with the sole purpose of feeling good about confusing the viewer.

Plenty of action, and the action is well filmed, but the story is obscure.

We don't know which character is which as they go from playful banter to foxhole fighting. It's very disjointed. And that's got to be on purpose, but it's stupid directing.

The sort of characterizations are the same we've seen in every war movie ever.

The one thing that does stick out is how the soldiers play general in the movie, or want to play general, and think they know all the answers.

And that's how soldiers are. That's how people are in life and death situations, because people rely on whatever training and research and lore and schooling and experience they have had.

But that could have been done a lot better with better writing.
