The film embodies the story of 19-year-old Billy Lynn, as he was brought home as a war hero after a round of victory and a terrible battle in Iraq. Things seem to remain different in the United States of America, where they go on a promotional tour across the country, and Lynne recounts the tragic memories of the war in the form of his past memories.
A very irregular and minor filme in the work of Ang Lee, which, however, deserves to be applauded for the courage with which criticizes the excessive American patriotism. [Full review in Spanish]
A movie that explores, nearly as well as The Best Years of Our Lives, the gap that divides actual warriors from those who merely wave flags in their honor.
[Lurches] from a grim family drama cursorily observed to a big and broad satire of the United States in the early 2000s before descending into the very kind of sentimental militarism it has parodied.
An absurdly over-scaled and wildly implausible drama that misses the mark so often that most people will likely come out of it... befuddled as they desperately try to understand what the point of the whole endeavor was in the first place.
An interesting film that tries to show the plasticity that exists between powerful people but can be a bit confusing and feels a bit overacted when it tries to make that critic. [Full review in Spanish]
