Directed by: Jason Hall
Written by: Jason Hall & David Finkel (novel)
Starring: Miles Teller, Haley Bennett, & Beulah Koale
Overall, the film was inspiring to be more proactive in fighting for veteran rights. Plot wise, the film addressed what veterans go through in three different scenarios, such as gang activity, suicide, and the V.A. It was very eye opening and brought about a larger issue that more people should be concerned of.
As a film, there were portions in the middle that dragged a little, such as the hunting scene, in my opinion, but I thought at the same time that these scenes were appropriate to bring about further scenes, essentially the backstory.
On another note, I feel the casting choice for Miles Teller was poor. To me, he's more of a college kid, because of how young he looks, but playing a late 20-year-old seems unbelievable, especially in him being a sergeant.
4 popcorns.
