I've been to Kabul, and I've been to Khowst where the major firefight took place at the border. This movie is definitely Afghanistan. The movie is good for what it is. These guys should get an award for simply traveling around Afghanistan without protection-totally insane.

The movie is convincing for so long because of the ambitious nature of documentary film-makers trying to make a name for themselves. The "director" overacts, but being a director(vain) that is believable.

These guys are entirely too lucky and push the envelope too far. That's when I realized that there was no way that this was a true documentary. Also the sequencing that something is always going on, there is no down time.

The 9/11 twist was a little lame about losing his wife, not a good way to end it.

Just because we all felt like we were had doesn't make this a bad movie. If you like predictability you're the fool. The movie was good, and a generally good idea. If you adrenaline doesn't start pumping during the scene when RPGs are being fired at the camera as you are moving down a street there's something wrong with you.
