Caught this last week, thought it was overall alright.
The beginning of the film before they go on mission/fight is typical silly homoherotic undertones military fare.
Once in Afghanistan, the film gets better and the warfare was well done.

Glad there's a fellow KMCer who's seen this
Was it as good as or better than Tears of the Sun or Black Hawk Down? Won't even bring up Act of Valor because of the uncomfortably bad acting.
Robtard
Not as good as Tears, though they were trying for a more realistic approach in LS, as they were little to no subplots like Tears: love interest, black guy finding his roots etc. It was basically four guys stuck in the shit.
Better than BHD, from what I recall of that flick.
I can send it to you if you don't want to wait until Friday to watch it, as I know you're a military movie fanatic. PM an address.

Thanks so much

won't be saying.. Walhberg doesn;t even look like the real dude

Odd reason not to watch....
As far as accuracy of the characters go, Taylor Kitsch was stated by the deceased own parents to have portrayed him well.

Talented actors don't always fit the bill. Sean Bean was an excellent Boromir. LOOKS NOTHING LIKE THE DUDE IN THE BOOK. WON'T SEE IT NAO.

Calm down. No need for the macho schtick.
Stealth Moose
You didn't have sweaty bonding sessions with other guys, Robtard. You can't understand.
