À propos de ce film

Decorated Iraq war hero Sgt. Brandon King (Ryan Phillippe) makes a celebrated return to his small Texas hometown following his tour of duty. He tries to resume the life he left behind with the help and support of his family and his best friend, Steve Shriver (Channing Tatum), who served with him in Iraq. Along with their other war buddies, Brandon and Steve try to make peace with civilian life. Then, against Brandon's will, the Army orders him back to duty in Iraq, which upends his world. The conflict tests everything he believes in: the bond of family, the loyalty of friendship, the limits of love and the value of honor.

Notes et avis

This was a really good movie which realistically portrays how a lot of guys come back from Afghanistan. If you are looking for an actual war movie watch Black Hawk Down, this movie lacked action but focused more on what it's like coming home and how much they changed.

The movie that opened my eyes up to how our military gets treated. Didn't know there was such a thing called "Stop Loss" Really need to watch, Great movie, Eye Opener!!!

Unconvincing portrayal of an otherwise unfair system. Overly exaggerated characters to the point of being stereotypes. Unenthusiastic.
