Let me just start by saying that I don't condone the current war in Iraq. That being said, I like a good war flick here and there and haven't seen one since Black Hawk Down. This one actually looks okay on the tv ads. Anyone else considering dropping the bacon on this one while it's in the theatre?

I'll probably wait until the video, which at the current rate should be next month. I have the book but I've never read it. It's based on actual events during the first Oil War and I understand it's pretty shockingly powerful in its anti-war statement without having any real combat scenes. Should be interesting.
And Jamie Foxx kicks ass. Except in that douchebag-looking piece of shit Stealth.

Read the book a while ago and saw the movie last night.
Really good movie.
There were a few parts I didn't remember from the book, but that could be because it's been so long since I've read it.
