From another point of view, although American prisons look brutal. But still more merciful than the Afghan warlords. The film shows that nine out of ten Taliban prisoners of war were suffocated or killed directly. The Americans at least keep your life, and if the Afghans deal with it, maybe a gun will be gone. So, think more about the poor poor people.
From a technical point of view, the method of shooting is rather dull. I feel that the director is indecisive between documentary and sensational. On the one hand, all the performances are performed by the parties themselves, using self-reported expressions. In an attempt to create a sense of reality. But lacking the seriousness of the documentary, it seems biased. On the other hand, it takes a lot of writing to show that the prisoners are being abused, but the most brutal methods of the Americans in the film are confinement, loud noises and flashes, and beatings. Compared with the news seen in the news, it is insignificant. So not provocative enough.
