If you want a movie that does a way better job at talking about the experience of being an American soldier without the usual Hollywood bullshit, might I recommend [i]Hurt Locker[/i]? Several veterans that I've talked with named it the closest non-documentary movie to what they feel their service was like, cinema-wise.

@User41 ok I have only a small level of experience talking to vets. So I was just curious.
Thank you.
Thank you.

@User41 Yeah, I don't know anything about the accuracy of EOD - I recommended it solely on the basis of a combat vet remarking that he felt that the tension and anxiety of the movie, coupled with some specific scene, encapsulated how he felt about his time deployed. I don't know what exactly it was, but who am I to second-guess?
If we're talking war movies that I'd recommend, I don't think that I'd recommend many American movies - and certainly no movies that try to make "heroes".
