Hypocrisy of these turks are just is just unbelievable. Its not their fault since thats what happens if you are raised with propoganda. Very grateful for your help with isis.

When this documentary started, I'm not going to lie, I didn't take to Michael Enright. Being ex-military myself for over 20 years (and having served in some scary places) I knew people like him. Billy Bulls**tters. If you've been to Timbuktu, he's been to Timbukthree, Been to Tenerife? He's been to Eleven-erife. But I think that was the point at the start of the documentary.

The first half puts that doubt in your mind that he's a Walter Mitty. That he's making a lot of it up. Then the detractors speak (one US ex-soldier in particular) to further reinforce that opinion.

But bear with it. It does a whole 180 degree spin. What unfolds proves he has seen things many will never see and he suffers as a consequence. The head-cam footage is terrifying and horrific. One interaction following an ISIS attack almost breaks him and genuinely had me in pieces.

Was he lied to by officials (I'll not give any more away)? I don't know. It's in his interest to lie about this, but he seems reasonably credible. What I do know (and again I'll not spoil things but if you know anything about the Kurds you'll know already), betrayal features highly here. Regardless of your politics, what happens sticks in the craw and makes you feel guilty and embarrassed. He can't go back to the UK (similar fighters against ISIS have been prosecuted) and returning the US seems a futile dream. Sobering stuff.

That's who a true freedom fighter IS !

Mark my words, ISIS will come back to life stronger than it has ever been, under a new name, but with the same agenda. Make sure to join the fighting forces to combat this evil!!!!!!!!

Michael Enright --A real life Hollywood actor in films such as Knight and day, Old Dogs and Pirates of the Carribean. Has decided to join and very mch did join the Y. P. G. To fight ISIS in Syria. This film explores whether or not he "really" joined it. I mean he was definitely there but according to a few foreign "foreign" fighters he was not trusted with everything. While other fifghters and the Y. P. G. Themselves have proof he helped catch very important people in Syria. The story is 100% interesting and should be watched just for the WTF factor. The direction and producing of the film is questionable with the 1st half bashing him down and the 2nd bringing him up. Didn't really work so the "movie" part gets a 5-6 out of 10 but this story and your need to watch it gets a 9 out of 10. Ohhh and there's a little twist at the end that makes you ask yourself a question..

Let this man come home to his beloved home and city of l.a. Usa, let him relax and mend his mental wounds, and the best way for him to do that is to go back into the hollywood studios to act out!!! Michael enright is a true british american hero that have fought what most of the world thinks is evil, and when the evil is done then its a deed to do by the american government to apprais their efforts. As jim morisson declaimed over and over again; ''you cannot petition the lord with prayers'' , therefore let me do the petition mr.president for mr enright, give him a green card ,man, cause he helped erase the world from ''the plague of the dark shrouds'', and even document it... well that seems to be my political citationistic digression, back to reviewing

its a film that shows the worst and the best in humanity, the makers have had a lot of material to put together, it lacks some attacks towards the political machinery of washington d.c., just to get clarity on the foreign fighters standpoint.

Its also a film about the alfa males of the world, and an alfa sam versus an alfa brit( that lived 30 years in the usa as an actor on a tourist visa, shame on him for that) nagging on each other what the personal purposes of the fighting was.

Its also a documentary that supports the kurdish people to be kurdish, and their fight for their own state and territory, and its a film that points a finger towards the infamous diplomatic curtain, aka u.s./turkish relations( turks hates the kurds and vice verca)

so if youve had thoughts on the isis, daesh or the islamic caliphate and their evil deeds done by foreign hudlums becoming the reapers of the middle east, this is a documentary to watch.

I, the grumpy old man, had to take a view of the screen at moments, and felt the claw of sadness of the deaths and lost destiny of the people living in the wasps nest called middle east. A thumbs up for the production, good editing and storytelling, and the score dwelling underneath scores, so a big recommend.
