I had read about this. The general review is that it's a good/bad thing. Good because it shows beyond the general propaganda pieces you normally see from Afghanistan, but bad because it literally shows no context at all for the majority of the film. So as a civilian, you don't get any context - is this normal behavior? When these soldiers were smoking weed for example, were there firefights 5 miles away, or was it just another boring day?
And in two articles I read, the contextual complaints were coming from soldiers who had served over there - they said it was difficult for them to watch and figure out what was going on, so they felt that civilians wouldn't really understand.
