03/03/2016 It's been a while since I saw Restrepo, but Junger's latest offering took me right back. See more 09/05/2015 Kaikki oleellinen kerrottiin jo Restrepossa, mutta kyllä tämä silti tykitti kovaa. Ja jätkät on kameran edessä rehellisiä: mikä on parasta täällä: "No tulitaistelut. Mistään ei saa samanlaisia kiksejä." See more Grant S @grantss 05/23/2015 Strangely unengaging documentary. Korengal follows the lives of a company of US Army soldiers stationed at an outpost in Afghanistan in 2007-8. It is the sequel to Restrepo, which was nominated for a Best Documentary Oscar in 2011. Maybe it is because I haven't seen Restrepo (yet), but this documentary just doesn't work for me. It doesn't do much wrong - there is a good mix of interviews and live action footage and there is a degree of conclusiveness to it all. Yet I wasn't engaged. The whole thing just seemed to plod along and I didn't feel any real affinity towards the soldiers. There is also a large degree of gung-ho-ness and bravado, which is a bit off-putting. The movie doesn't feel balanced enough. Maybe that's the problem. See more 04/02/2015 Amazing movie the idea of showing war it supposed to be interest me See more 03/21/2015 No nonsense, thought-provoking documentary about modern life on the front lines. What's most interesting in the majority view that they miss the combat life and would happily go back because of their bonds See more 02/22/2015 Somewhat more interesting then it's predecessor See more Read all reviews
