If you don't get this movie, it's ok.. You weren't supposed to. If you've ever sat on a sand covered runway waiting for your tail number to be called, all the while hoping your luck meter has a little more left in the tank. Loading up on a plane that you enter through the rear and then flying home with empty seats which seems to take forever, but suddenly you realize the trip flew by. Your next memory is walking into a hanger somewhere surrounded by family and friends to a cheesy song playing over a loud spear, usually Kryptonite by 3 Doors Down, looking across fields of grass that you never noticed being that green before. You are reunited with your soldiers that left the mission early, usually to never return to service. It's a wonderful time, yet somehow you don't feel much like being there. Your next realization to your return is being thrown backwards into a society that looks different now. Not bad, just different. Certain things don't bother you as much anymore, while other things you never gave a second glance now eats away at you from the inside. If you or anyone you may know that has been deployed even once, or on multiple occasions for that matter, than you get what this movie was all about. This movie did exactly what it was designed for, and that is to shed a light on PTSD. An issue that has taken the life of way too many soldiers returning home. No Mission Too Difficult, No Sacrifice Too Great, Duty First.

I sat for 90 minutes watching a decent cast tip toe through a rediculous plot. It had to be the most boring and drug out movie I've ever read. The entire concept is laughable. There were way to many inconsistencies. Did I mention it sucked?
