Superlatives abound. The best documentary I've seen in a long time. The best war film I've ever seen.
Two photojournalists are embedded with a platoon of US soldiers in the Korengal Valley, Afghanistan for a year. The ethics of conflict, the reasoning behind military intervention, and the futility of protracted guerrilla warfare in the Tribal Belt aren't discussed here. This is not a film that picks sides - it is a bleak, objective look at a group of dudes going about their chosen profession.
