I am not exactly the target audience for this TV movie since I didn't lived in the Gulf War years (the 1980s) but I saw it only because it has also Scott Glenn in it and since I am his biggest fan I knew I had to watch this. And as you might guess from my score and summary I liked it.
The movie consists of parts with journalists Michael Boyle, Bob Calhoun and Dorian Waldorf (Glenn, Michael Murphy and Helen Shaver) and parts with real journalists who in fact never made a movie after this one that give a chronicle of the Gulf War from the US' view point and while they make it look like a bad war they don't lose their sense of hope (that might have been shared by those who lived that war back in its day).
That was essentially the plot, and while it's only a realistic movie it's still worth a watch because of the acting and also for seeing the TV news reports of those days. If you are a history expert it's highly recommended.
