Some of the reviews are brutal, and hilarious.

It dawned on me that Kathryn Bigelow was trying to copy what Kurosawa's did in "Rashomon" that is to show an event from different perspectives to explore the subjectivity of truth. In fact, that is called the "Rashomon effect." Unfortunately she isn't anywhere near as skillful a Akira Kurosawa and it resulted in a miserable failure. I felt like I got conned into watching the same boring poorly told story over and over. I want those 112 minutes back.
