Got a chance to go see the movie "12 Strong". I've seen some negative press on it, both because the lefties hate it and many pro-military guys will pan a movie if they use the wrong buttons on the uniforms. Personally, I thought it was a terrific movie! Lots of action from start to finish. Heavy focus on fighting bad guys instead of sitting around crying and whining. (If you've seen the movie Jarhead, you'll know what I'm talking about.)
Were there technical issues? Yeah, a few. Nobody ever reloads. Rifles shoot forever. And M-4s shoot full auto in the movie. But the 12 Green Berets are shown in a good light throughout the movie - there are even some pretty good laughs. And plenty of large explosions!! Bad guys are killed without any sympathy. This is what a good war movie should look like.
