This is NOT a feel good movie, but you should watch it anyways. I know this is going to seem like a cop out but I think that this movie will strike so many different opinions in all the different people's minds who view it that I think that a simple 'watch this movie' will suffice.

This is definitely a powerful thought-provoking film. I think that most people could benefit from viewing this movie. It is often good to be reminded of, or introduced, to ideas that are hard to deal with comfortably. This is a controversial movie. The controversy, of course, lies with how you view the war in Iraq and Afghanistan. This is not a political blog, so I'll refrain from kicking that hornet's nest.

If you want a movie that is going to make you think about what's going on in the world, and question your own or anyone else's ability to change the course of things, then this is a good movie choice for you. If you just want to be entertained for two hours then you should steer clear of this one. It is not a feel good movie.
