Critics consensus

“The ensemble cast works hard, but hammy direction and a script lacking in nuance ruins this movie's noble intentions.”

Obvious, plodding, cloying and politically innocuous.

I must say the best thing about the movie is that it's interested in the soldiers, not the self-serving popinjays who seem to think the war is a big fat career-enhancing photo opportunity. The people who got shot at deserve most of the attention.

A laughably clichd, melodramatic, Oscar-courting prestige pic.

RTGone With The TwinsNov 24, 2020

It may have good intentions and controversial subject matter, but it doesn't translate into an entertaining piece of cinema.
