Om den här filmen

EYE IN THE SKY stars Helen Mirren as Colonel Katherine Powell, a UK-based military officer in command of a top secret drone operation to capture terrorists in Kenya. Through remote surveillance and on-the-ground intel, Powell discovers the targets are planning a suicide bombing and the mission escalates from “capture” to “kill.” But as American pilot Steve Watts (Aaron Paul) is about to engage, a nine-year old girl enters the kill zone triggering an international dispute, reaching the highest levels of US and British government, over the moral, political, and personal implications of modern warfare

Gripping but cliched. The amount of emotional attachment portrayed by the military and political characters involved in deciding whether to strike or not is laughably implausible. That said the film is beautifully shot and has tension throughout - if you can manage to suspend your disbelief.

This is a great anti war movie that has plentiful action. Commendable performances throughout! This is not a comfortable movie to watch, so no flag waving moments here, just graphic realism!

Very good film, really well done. The film keeps you on the edge of your seat the entire way. It is quite thought provoking too, makes you really think about the costs of war. A lot of war films get lost in the violence, this film really does take into consideration the moral side.
