During the Iraq War, a Sergeant recently assigned to an army bomb squad is put at at odds with his squad mates due to his maverick way of handling his work.
Complex and insightful study of men at war with a more timeless message than focusing on the specifics of the Iraq war.
Maltin***1/2: "Episodic but thoroughly absorbing character study has many suspenseful moments, and one breathtaking sequence in which the men fight fatigue while conducting a long-range rifle battle. Renner is perfect in the central role as a man for whom "war is a drug." Vivied, credible screenplay by Mark Boal, perfectly realized by Bigelow."
