That's too bad--it looked like it might be worth watching.

Was thinking the same thing....although I must say that I had my reservations that it would be spun as anti-war by highlighting the suffering and death of our troops. This confirms my thoughts.....it's a shame...they really could have done something positive for the war effort and over all morale with this too.

Not from the promos I saw.

So far it seems like nit picking.

Geeze, did anyone really care that Rambo couldn't do half the stuff he did or that Red Dawn had some major obvious gaffes in it and that John Wayne's bravado is what the military mocks in training?

Even the 'documentary' Gunner Palace bore little resemblance to what troops in other areas experienced. So what it real for one my not be real for another.

Besides, isn't this supposed to be entertainment first and foremost?
