This movie tries so hard to be funny, yet it falls flat every time. Just another example of recycled ideas repackaged with women in an attempt to appeal to a certain audience.

The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

This was only an hour long but hugely powerful. Profiling several wounded combat veterans who go to a fishing camp run by a Vietnam veteran who found that fly-fishing (the act of catch and release) helped him deal with his own emotional distress and hopes to help other wounded soldiers.Through intimate interviews we learn what the men did in the war; pilots, Navy SEAL's, bomb disposal, drivers and then the human cost of war is shown as they try to come to terms with their new reality. Most are suffering from blast injuries and PTSD. This packs a huge punch, such valuable men now so damaged. The SEAL stood out; a huge barrel chested man now missing a leg, confined to a wheelchair and unable to speak but as his tattoo says "we ain't done fighting yet" Wow. 05.25.14

A wonderfully moving film which shows the profound impact of warfare on veterans and their families. The film captures the strength of these wounded survivors and the dedication of those who wish to support them in their re-adjustment to civilian life. The movie is set in Montana, and the cinematography is breath-taking. This is not a political film, but a human-interest story which can't help but raise political questions. It doesn't take sides, and lets the veterans speak for themselves about their complex feelings about the war. It is a movie which you will find yourself thinking about for days if not months to come.

Although I am a housewife in an urban town far removed from either war or fly fishing, I was blown away by this film when I saw it at the Florida Film Festival. It is so well edited, it leaves you wanting more. The movie unfolds in a gentle way - none of the interviews or comments are coaxed, and it is completely neutral on a political scale. The cinematography of Montana is breathtaking, and each of the men's stories is so powerful in its own way, you will leave the theater with a new appreciation for all fellow humans who risk their lives for our freedom. After seeing this film, you will be a changed person, and you will count your blessings in a new way.

Not Yet Begun to Fight is a poignant portrayal of the challenges facing five veterans from our modern war. Their injuries are deep, either to their emotional states or, to their physiology. This movie captures their bravery, fortitude and tenacity to overcome their wounds and make new lives for themselves. The scenery is beautifully captured in the serene atmosphere of a Montana river, where catharsis takes place for them. Any viewer who has the capacity to empathize with our brave veterans will be touched by the story portrayed in this film. You might find yourself picking a favorite veteran, because you resonate with the injuries or experiences in war which brought him to these waters. This film is reflective, relevant and engaging for viewers, and, provides hope for all of us who share in the fate of our beloved veterans.
