Warfare
Spend 24 hours in hell with a U.S. Navy SEAL team during the Iraq War. On November 19, 2006, under the cover of darkness, these brave soldiers seize control of a two-story civilian home of two Iraqi families. They set up to provide intel on activities occurring at the market place across the street. Suddenly, a grenade is tossed into the room & the gun battle begins. They call for a CAS-EVAC to transport their wounded man, but an IED complicates their situation & they must scramble to refigure another escape plan. This true story is based on the memories & testimonies of the soldiers involved. This is a brutal movie that is hard to watch as the wounded scream in pain with the enemy closing in on their location. See the camaraderie among these men. This film puts you right in the middle of this war’s intensity. Photos & film footage of the real solders involved are shown at the end.
Alien gives it 3 “show of force” stars out of 4.
