I saw it – and liked it.
I liked honest approach the film too;, my guy friends tell me that male behavior was portrayed well. I felt the film ended poorly, however – the conclusion was a bit rushed and out of focus.
I thought the purpose of the film was to exaggerate the pointlessness and relative inactivity of Desert Storm – think of how different the young men seemed when compared to the older Vietnam vet who entered their bus, for example – but the movie ended with a weak, “… we are still out there, in the desert” speech – it didn’t seem to fit.
Oh well –that’s enough from me *steps of her soap box*

The point of the movie is kind of the same as what Orwell said in 1984 (and you probably heard the passage quoted in FH 9/11, if you watched it): That war is continual and pointless. War is fought all the time and when it's over nothing changes. There will always be an enemy to conquer, always a battlefield to fight on, always a soldier ready to die. The faces will change and the weapons will change and the buildings will move, but everything will stay the same. I haven't actually seen the movie, but I've read about it and it's very controversial, but I think it's a powerful and compelling message. When it hits the small screen, I'll pick it up.

Interesting analysis…
… I’m actually reading 1984 now (unfortunately I didn’t get the opportunity to do so in high school). I’ll be sure to take your post into consideration as I continue to read. Thanks
