When Mohammed Al-Rehaief, a young Iraqi lawyer, learns that Private first class Jessica Lynch, a 19-year old U.S. soldier from West Virginia, is held as POW in an Iraqi hospital, he wants to find out what a girl the age of his own daughters is doing and why she's being held, both the U.S. troops and his nationalist countrymen start treating him as a suspect- his personal drama is adding itself to hers and countless other ones in post-Saddam Iraq...

Movie was more of a way to cash in on the hysteria of the time. For those who watch it, pay careful attention to the terrain, most of it was filmed in downtown Dallas and nearby areas. Better yet, watch Walker Texas Ranger and this movie at the same time. Look familiar? hehe
Ironically it was cheaper to spread sand and slap styrofoam on old buildings than film in LA or Canada, although the namesake star is a Canadian.
Some trivia, the hospital used was an abandoned one and when the art department put a Saddam portrait outside, it would be paintballed overnight and some guy drove all the way from Longview to Dallas to protest the Iraqis invading Texas.
Overall I would give it a 5 out of 10, not sure if it is available at your local Blockbuster yet.
