EXTRAORDINARY!
A harrowing insight into some of the West's tactics in it's battle against the 'axis of evil'. I have no sympathy for the guilty, but you just can't treat the innocent this way. This film makes it's point well and is kept at it's natural length, rather than being padded out for the usual 90 - 120 minutes. Short and punchy. Exactly how to do it. Well done Threapleton. Serkis is excellent.
