be an american service member please believe me when i say that this movie in no way accurately portray the emotional state of our soldier or sailor or airman or marine return from deployment . that be say . this movie be one large steam pile of cliché . the acting a awful ( with the exception of the little girl ) the character background be weak and laughable and and plot be ludicrous . this movie be so bad i make an account with imdb just to warn anyone with half a brain away from it . canadian writer or director francesco lucente should be really and really and really ashamed of this movie . if he disagree with u foreign policy and he should write a letter to the u government and not punish the entire english speaking world with a monumentally crap film .
