5 out of 5 stars bought for a friend    December 18, 2008
iluvjes (west virginia)

5 out of 5 stars A must-see heart-breaker    December 16, 2008
P. Ryan (Muncie, In. USA)
This documentary provides an extremely good view of our government's failure to help or make public (enough) their failures of helping our disabled and wounded troops when they come back from the war. It is a shining example of Bush and Cheney's "so what" approach to the many devastating aftermaths of the war.


3 out of 5 stars DVD MASTERING PROBLEMS    December 8, 2008
H S Marks (Manchester UK)
The sound is terrible, weak and compressed. Having seen clips on TV
that were fine it is the DVD releasing company that is responsible for
undermining this excellent film with crap audio.

Very compelling. A must see, as some forget that a war is even going on. These types of documentaries will make a difference when widely viewed.


5 out of 5 stars Not JUST an Anti War Film    November 3, 2008

I have seen this film three times and am dismayed that so few will have the chance to see it because some suit declared it not commercial. I took my children to see this film and it really affected them.
This is not just another anti-war film, it is the story of what happens to our veterans when they get home and about the unsung heroes in life. Everyone who supports veterans should feel an obligation to see this film. Everyone who believes that there are no more honest decent politicians owe it to themselves to allow Senator Robert Byrd to crush our callousness. Everyone who thinkss they would never sit idlely by while evil was done in their names, allow this film to make you think again. If you love America, PLEASE PLEASE SEE THIS FILM AND PASS IT ON TO SOMEONE ELSE.
