Look, I get it - some people dismiss this as "cheap propaganda." I've read the comments. I strongly disagree.
To me, it shows war for what it really is: dangerous, ugly, and ultimately pointless. There's no glamour, no glorification - just raw, unfiltered survival.
Yes, the protagonists are Navy SEALs, but even they struggle to recover after the first hit. That's what makes it human. That's what makes it believable.
And for those criticising the dialogue: this is probably more realistic than 90% of war films I've seen. What do you expect people to say in the middle of a firefight? Philosophical debates about geopolitics? No - they're just trying to survive and get their wounded brothers out alive.
I get that. I really do.
1 hour and 35 minutes - I was glued to my chair. Forgot my cold cider right beside me.

After "Bill Burr Presents: Friends Who Kill" I was a little bit frustrated as it wasn't funny to the most part.
But here Bill Burr fully delivered again.
Great program with everything in it you'd like to hear from this bold redheaded mf... ;)

Don't get me wrong: It's not bad. But it's just not what it could have been.
Maybe my expectations were too high. I was looking forward to a kind of Hard SiFi the like of "The Martian" and I got some kind of Space Soap.
I've never been to space. But I know as much as there is no way that astronauts would act like those guys. Reckless fools, driven by impulses and feelings.
The actors are good - no complaints there. But the story...
