Based upon the title, and a brief synopsis, I expected this to be a feel good, fun, buddies movie. It was far from that. Efron gave a great performance, and I was impressed with Bill Murray's Colonel role. Not a fan of Crowe, but, he really didn't disappoint. It was somewhat a stark reminder of the realities of war. I was a bit surprised by how Chickie could travel into a war zone, and out, as easily as he did. Since it was based upon a true story, I believed there was little that was fabricated to entertain. It is an interesting film with lots of twists and turns, and I'm sure Chickie had one hell of a great story to tell!
Well, worth the time invested!
