Why the fuck would he make such a film?

what does this accomplish.

A huge difference between "never forgetting" and being subjected to images of women and children being gassed.

That trailer was fucking awful enough.

Saving Private Ryan? Or do you mean, modern warfare, then probably Hurt Locker...but don't really watch many tbh.

This film is sick as well



Well worth the watch if you haven't seen it already. It takes a while to draw you in but some of the stories these guys tell are amazing.

The mother of all war films. It's Russian, made in the 80's, obviously with an agenda. To show what happened, not to fucking entertain you.
