Ok we got it. Trump zealots don't like it. Because the movie does not take side and is not about any political message. January 6th freak show was an insurrection but still very very far from what would have followed, had they succeeded that day. This movie is realistic about those consequences.
The second subject is the coming of age of the newbie war photographer. The process of shedding emotions to stay focused on the mission. Those emotions and guilt come later. And are quickly buried. But still gnawing at you despite the impassible exterior.
This movie hits hard and does not go the Hollywood way. The ground battle scenes look real. Kirsten Dunst is excellent. The other actors are good. The extremely juvenile appearance of Cailee Sapeny is a bit unsettling and it makes the message a bit heavy handed.
Unfortunately, the movie won't change the political landscape and the fatal attraction of hate and violence that has been soaring for several years. Much more will be needed.
Despite that pessimistic outlook, it is completely worth watching.
