An American drama for people who like Hummers and swear words

Remember the bloody Utah beaches and the cold Ardennes Forest in "Brothers"? Well, this is a different company of brothers. The iconic images are the dust from the long string of Hummers passing by on the highway under the scorching sun, and the dazzling green artillery fire from the night vision device in the dark desert.

Unlike "Brothers", a patriotic film with the main theme of the United States, the Iraq war itself is controversial. This film cannot avoid some sensitive issues: weapons of mass destruction WMD, justice of war, civilian casualties, racial discrimination, homosexuality. Perhaps the intention of this film is to present the true side of Yizhan, and the answer is left to you to interpret.

    The US military's sophisticated equipment, sophisticated tactics, and the incessant swear words and pornographic jokes of the Marines are all to watch. I can't see any "thematic ideas", maybe the Americans don't think this is a just war, and there is nothing to express except the truth.
