About the blog:

Well, hello! Thanks for stopping by to read my opinions about movies that I see. Some are older and most are new. Some I go to see in the theaters (both live performances and movies) and some I watch from the comfort of my own couch and even more, I will watch from the amazing Netflix app. Of course, these will be my personal thoughts about the targeted item, however, it will give you an idea of whether it's a colossal waste of time or worth a shot!

MY REVIEW:
I've read some really horrible reviews and it was basically critically shunned.

I got the feeling that I was thinking that I would get hearing the storied and seeing what these men endured. I think the ensemble was just strong enough to carry out the intended purpose of this type of movie. It's based on a true story and I think they did a great job with the casting. The real men who volunteered for this mission were not solders, so casting the likes of Bill Murray and John Goodman alongside Matt Damon and George Clooney seemed to be a good choice. Yes, the script could have been a little better and some of the scenes were really overdone,but it was good. Solid 7.
