I don't know how many of you have seen the previews for this film, yet. From the surface it looks like just another bang, bang, shoot 'em up army movie, but it is so much more!

I just wanted to see if any of the rest of y'all had seen it yet and encourage those who have not to give it a chance. It's definitely a movie you need to see when you are ready to focus on details.

It is so much more than just some bang "die bad guys" movie. People should really go see it....you'll see....yes, pay attention, very good attention

No, I did not know that. I guess I zoned out when they mentioned it the zillion and a half times they must have announced it on the news. With 90 minutes of news, I zone out pretty easily...

I didn't recognize any scenes from the movie, but most of it was jungle-esque. The only movie I could pick out familiar places in was Road Trip. I had no idea they had filmed most of it in Athens, GA, before I went to see it. My sister and I started flipping out in the middle of the movie with all the familiar spots.
