Clevercell Very disappointing...
Megamind To all those who have watched it: I hope you enjoyed it as much as I do.
ActuallyGlimmer The best films of this genre always show a path and provide a takeaway for being a better person.
Kamila Bell This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.
coco108-2 Well you tell me why so many of you people can't see beyond your nose? I would say that at least 80% of what is said in this movie and many more are trying to tell you how much the governments are not telling as the truth about many things that is going on behind our backs. Just one good example look what Mr. G. Bush said about the weapons of mass destruction, that was all a lies and just look at all the young men and women we have loss because people believed Mr. Bush and Mr. Cheney, sorry I think people should really start opening there eyes. Another thing just take a real close look at the World Trade Center pictures and videos, also why in the name of GOD would people listen to Fox News? Its another government run organization, just check it out and you well see who runs it, check the records if you can find them.
mal_constant Whoa! talk about factually incorrect, wallabee2003? Did you even watch the movie? This documentary isn't propaganda its anti-propaganda.They do focus on incoming Iraqi chemical weapons and explain how the troops were inadequately warned or protected if you watch the film you'll see that for your self.The U.S. military outclassed Iraq and would have achieved victory without the use of DU due to advanced computerized targeting capabilities. Most of the KIA in '91 were from friendly fire.I think the purpose was to illustrate a precedent and transcend the false left right political paradigm.Yes their are other documentaries that focus more on the implementation of DU and I recommend everyone watch this or another documentary detailing the effects of DU contamination.What type of military commanders fail to offer proper protection to the chemical & biological agents which they were involved in selling to Iraq (Iran-contra affair) and then expose the troops and the poor civilians to the additional permanent hazards of DU?
wallabee2003 It doesn't matter if you are conservative or liberal, when a movie is poorly made and factually incorrect, it shouldn't be given much merit. Don't just listen to the "this movie is great" comments, because these people are just blindly accepting propaganda. They don't pay attention to what the movie is saying, because the arguments presented there are terrible: 1. There is NO alternative to depleted uranium that is as effective. The closest thing we have is tungsten, which isn't even guaranteed to pierce the armor in tanks. The video doesn't mention this, it would hurt their position.2. This video doesn't take into account other reasons why soldiers could be sick. They blame every problem a soldier has ever had to DU. It could also be the poor health care, lack of adequate or clean water, STD's, viruses, enemy chemical attacks, shell shock, or poor hygiene. But none of these things are considered. 3. Most of the advocates against depleted uranium, admittedly have a problem with the US government as far as health benefits and disabled pay are concerned. They are incredibly biased. Documentaries need to have sources that are not only credible, but don't have an agenda. This movie is just terrible, total waste of time. Everyone I watched this movie with, (democrats, republicans, and a libertarian), thought it was horrendous. Do yourself a favor and go watch a different Depleted Uranium documentary. There's bound to be another one that is actually done right.
colbydog If 1/10th of what is revealed in this documentary is true.... we all gotta become Tom Cruise's character Lt Kaffee as he riddles the Col Jessep (Jack Nicholson) on the witness stand. The truths exposed span the last sixty years... starting with the events following WWII leading to the birth of the Military Industrial Complex— the melding of big business, military and government... President Eisenhower warned of the dangers in his farewell address from office. Rokker and the unclassified documents prove his warning.The information about the DOD's complicity and knowledge of chemical biological weapons bunkers in Iraq during the 1992 invasion is beyond belief. The interviews of Rokker about the Depleated Uranium ammunition the military is using and it's 4.6 million year radioactive half- life causing horrific deformities to civilians as well as our military personnel... is beyond treason. If you leave this film without rethinking our policy of military supremacy, you weren't watching.
