I'm not going to see it, but I am definitely there for the woke reaction to it. I've got the popcorn ready. :D
Andy Ngo is mentioned at the end of the film because some of his archival footage was used, and far left twitter is having the predictable melt down over it.
Y'all gotta stop hyperventilating about shit so much.
I get it, I love a good REEEE moment.
I watched the damn thing, and besides some minor pretend "journalists are so ballsy and heroic" moments it was... Better than I expected.
It was mostly a "these are the horrors of war and what can happen if we go THERE" type of film. They didn't shy away from violence and gore.
There's a moment in the film where a snipers tells a journalist "oh, you're fucking retarded aren't you? You don't understand a damn thing I'm saying" after the urinalist keeps babbling about "who's giving orders, why are you fighting" the soldier simply said "he's trying to kill me, so I'm trying to kill him".
Overall minus the like, 3 short moments of urinalist circle jerk, it portrayed war ok enough to not feel like some dumbass action movie.
