Guerra de Irak. Después de destruir accidentalmente uno de sus propios tanques, el teniente coronel Nathan Serling (Denzel Washington) vuelve a casa. El Ejército oculta el incidente y asigna a Serling la misión de investigar al capitán Karen Walden (Meg Ryan), una piloto de helicóptero que, a título póstumo, está a punto de convertirse en la primera mujer héroe de guerra que recibe la medalla al honor por una acción en combate. Ésta fue la primera película que se hizo en Hollywood sobre la I Guerra del Golfo. (20th Century Fox España)

It's not a bad attempt at a more psychological approach to war material. The creators offer one of the films of the Gulf War from several perspectives – each person has their own motivations, motives a different version, and the view of the events of one night in a downed American helicopter. Is his commander a fearless heroin or a panicked woman? Denzel Washington's job is to find out the truth while dealing with the inner trauma of the war. Unfortunately, the interesting idea of "analyzing war heroism" is not very interestingly realized. Basically, it's noble and fairly well-played boredom with empty ambitions to go into depth, which you only need to see once for the solution.

A very good psychological war drama. The flashbacks were well dosed and not a moment was boring. I enjoyed Captain Walden, I mean Meg Ryan.

Too much pathos in movies just bothers me. That's exactly what happens in the last 20 minutes or so of this film. But Denzel Washington is an actor who can walk you through this without you having to get too angry. Great acting with a story that seemed good but could have been even better.
