Unbelievable. We had to suffer from movie after movie beating us over the head about how bad the war is, how evil our troops are, etc. etc. etc. Flop after flop like redacted, lions for lambs, valley of elah, and yet they STILL come out with this garbage. Can't they at least come up with something a wee bit more original than the "vet" who comes home traumatized and goes john rambo?

I swear....

Hollywood Hatefest.

I suspect that Hollywood keeps making these anti-American propaganda films even though they lose tons of money at the box-office because they will eventually make their way to cable, where they will run ad nauseam to an impressionable, semi-captive audience.

By the time election season rolls around, these films will have spent a couple of months on Showtime, HBO, Cinemax, Starz, Encore and maybe even on USA or TNT.

Just think of the phrase "Stuck on Stupid"...It describes Hollywood perfectly.

They will when it becomes too painful to make crap like this, i.e. when it hurts their wallets. I've heard reports that Hwood is rethinking the whole lefty war movie concept because no one (including lefties) is watching them. Unfortunately, I don't think they'll completely turn the corner and make good war movies. I think the era of "Midway" et.al. is long gone.

I liked the movie better when it was called, “Born On the Fourth of July.”
