It was an overall good movie. It is very true and the script is dead on until the bull crap spin at the end. Having been a war veteran I was looking forward to the movie. I have had so many people that never served behave in the way that the lead character behaved. Overall a good screenplay but the Veteran's anti war crap at the end almost ruined the entire film. Rent "Jacknife" it is a movie based on Pulitzer winning play that tells the Veteran story better. I am not sure if the screenwriter added the Left wing veteran comment at the end for political purposes or as an insult. Whatever the case it could have been very healing but turned out not to be as much. The borrowed part from the "Bridges at Toko Ri" about the people at home going about their business was a good touch. The Veteran serving however knows that those back in the states not serving could care less about them but the screenplay does not stay true to that concept. The last part of the script was lousy from the Veteran perspective in my opinion. There aren't only a bunch of IQ 90 soldiers who use the military as their only way out, as the movie implies, and the statistical average IQ of soldier versus the general population again debunks that generalization. So insulting. Overall a good story but the portrayal of the Veteran's political perspective is off from my experience with the vast majority of Combat Veterans that I know. I will agree most who never serve are truly thankless and give lip service which is fine with me.
