About

If you like serious, politically charged war dramas about ordinary people pulled into history, this may land hard, especially if you enjoyed The Wind That Shakes the Barley or Hidden Agenda; Not for you if you want light entertainment or simple heroes.

Pros: intense war realism; provocative political debates; strong sense of idealism | Cons: heavy-handed message; thin character depth; talky pacing at times
