Running Time : 126 mins
An army bomb squad based in Baghdad are faced with a dangerous day to day existence where anything they see on the streets, no matter how innocuous, could be an explosive device. One soldier in particular, Sergeant First Class William James (Renner), seems to have more of a death wish than most, and continues to take further and further risks in regards to potential explosive situations.
This was better than I though it would be, though it is still a war film – not my favourite genre of movie. The acting gets better as the movie progresses, and the final scenes are well worth waiting out the opening of the film. Fans of war films will probably love this, but if you don’t get your kicks from watching soldiers wandering around aimlessly then give this a miss.
