Just finished watching Restrepo, pretty powerful film if you ask me, I was wondering if any one else saw the movie. It may not be an action-buster, but its the real story of what these guys went through. I thought it was very interesting to see their reactions and interviews in the movie, and there were some scenes where it got very intense.
All in all a good film and I highly recommend it to any one who would be interested. So NG if you saw it any thoughts?

Yea I saw it. It was very interesting and I enjoyed it.
Also, if you have not heard the guy who filmed and produced Restrepo was killed last month in Libya. He was doing something similar to Restrepo documenting what was going on over there. So it really puts into perspective how much danger he was really in while filming there.
RIP

Yea I heard about that, however I'm not really surprised that he would die there and not Afghanistan. They were fighting in a fort for relatively most of the film, and I think the only time he was in any true danger was when he was out on patrols. Id find it more dangerous to be with a less professional military in a revolution where there is no clear defined or stable army to help you.
