Outpost in Afghanistan
One hour 40 minutes of my life I will never get back
To be fair the movie has TREMENDOUS atmosphere, and the acting is very believable both from the French Troops cast, and the Taliban.
The story, however, is incoherent in the extreme, to the point of nonsensical.
A bit like (Kubrick) The Shining , or Event Horizon, the print as delivered makes no sense. Possibly bad editing, or just a bad screenplay.
