From the director of Zero Dark Thirty
"An intense portrayal of elite soldiers who have one of the most dangerous jobs in the world: disarming bombs in the heat of combat. When a new sergeant, James, takes over a highly trained bomb disposal team amidst violent conflict, he surprises his two subordinates, Sanborn and Eldridge, by recklessly plunging them into a deadly game of urban combat. James behaves as if he's indifferent to death. As the men struggle to control their wild new leader, the city explodes into chaos, and James' true character reveals itself in a way that will change each man forever." IMDB
I never wanted to watch this movie. The trailer made it sound like a war movie, the Oscars started making it too big. And I saw it. It has nothing to do, nothing, with what it seems. It is very intelligent, not judgmental, psychologically intense, and technically perfect. Worth winning. I was taken by the lifestyle of those soldiers that have to make decisions that are beyond their humanity or their fear of death.
