I don't want to give any spoilers so I'll just say this movie had the right story, the right actors, the right setting to be something special but the whole film came out shallow & flat imo.
It just seemed like a paint by numbers production. The battle or military sequences could've been more broad or involved. They could've included the trials & news coverage or the impact this story had on the country or military but didn't.
When the movie ended & went to credits I said to myself: 'is that it?'
Evidently it was & it just wasn't good enough imo.

Plot summary
When Andrew Briggman—a young soldier in the US invasion of Afghanistan—witnesses other recruits killing innocent civilians under the direction of a sadistic Sergeant, he considers reporting them to higher-ups. However, the heavily-armed and increasingly-violent platoon becomes suspicious that someone in their ranks has turned on them, and Andrew begins to fear that he'll be the next target.

Could've, should've been better
Decent claustrophobic war film
This was a decent effort elevated by Alexander Skarsgard who plays low key menacing so well. There was a strong sense of the dilemma our lead young soldier felt as he wrestles between doing the right thing and fitting in with his team. The film feels very claustrophobic and it seemed like a realistic portrait of a powerless and lonely existence on the bottom rung of the US Army.
