Based on true events, a platoon of U.S. Navy SEALs hole up in a residential area during a 2006 encounter in the Iraq War. The film is presented in "real time" and strives to be as realistic and gritty as possible, which translates to a lot of loud gunfire, shaky camerawork and people screaming for an hour and a half. You already know how this is going to turn out. What is the point of this film? To show that war isn't all it's cracked up to be? I think we all know that by now. War is boring. Real life isn't Call of Duty. There's no point glorifying it.
