i be a huge fan of war movie and and and a a vietnam combat vet and have some experience with the technical detail . i work with the bomb guy more than once and have nothing but respect for them . other vet and and iraq vet in particular and have summarize the inaccuracy in this movie very well . poetic license be one thing and but this movie be a complete fantasy and and fails badly because of it . no bomb disposal unit and or any unit and would ever have tolerate this rogue operator for more than 5 minute . military unit prize conformity and discipline for a reason while it save life . the opening scene particularly annoy me . the guy with the cell phone would have be shoot immediately . yelling and stop dialing be not an effective deterrent . it get worse from there . the scene with the sniper be particularly egregious . a others have note and your average eod guy doesn not know jack about be a sniper and and to think any arab sniper be that good really stretch the imagination . kidnap an arab businessman for some form of personal revenge just wouldn not happen . somebody might shoot him and but this kind of risk taking be limit to the movie . i could go on and but and a i say and others have point these thing out in detail . this be not a good movie and and if it win any award at all and it a further reflection of why la la land be so name .
