About
You may like this if you want a serious war drama built around a rescue mission and the strain of withdrawal, especially if titles like The Kill Team or The Pilot: A Battle for Survival appeal to you; Not for you if you want something light or triumphant.
Pros: tense rescue setup; based on true events; weighty wartime stakes | Cons: grim tone; heavy subject matter; narrow mission focus
