The fact that Tommy Lee Jones' character changes his point of view along the film about the Army and the situation in Irak is I think, what a lot of Americans feel about it and that coud be a reason to see that movie.

It is good movie but some weak points. But totally good for one time.

Haggis' ability to put his finger on the pulse of his characters is becoming uncanny. No giants are slain here, only held at bay. Tommy Lee Jones' minimalist portrayal of an old warrior and Charlize Theron's overdrive portrayal of a young warrior are performances to behold. This film will become greater with the passage of time, not lesser.

A very powerful performance by Tommy Lee Jones. It is a very thought-provoking view of the role of the military in Iraq, and how all wars eventually corrupt and destroy the souls of soldiers. The parents (Tommy Lee Jones and Susan Sarandon) of a son gone missing get dragged down a convoluted road and the revelations along the way are most disturbing. There is no glamorization of war in this movie.

An excellent movie which makes you remember the real life and shows you that a war is not that the people need. There are more important things in life than making your degree and watching news. On the example of one family military drama we can see that the Army is another "society" where rules are different. Great starring, true story.

Hi, this movie is like a fat man who wears tight jeans. Awkward and quite revolting. No style. Idiotic. Flat as a pizza under an elephant's pillow. Desperate for nods. Easy to discard from memory. Hackneyed. Stale. Laughable. Sweaty. Stinky. Soon to be dead and buried (that's the good news) Although I did like the character in the office scene with the umbrella very much. Bravo to that one moment.

Did not enjoy this film at all. There was no middle or end to the film.

This is a very interesting movie that gave an insight of what soldiers goes thru. Excellent performance by Tommy Lee Jones. A movie worth seeing...
