Great acting, awesome art direction, good sound design and some pretty good action scenes full of practical effects and some seemless CGI.
When I came across this movie I "pinned it" jut because it had a catching tittle and a very peculiar thumbnail. I didn't expect much, since I actually watch a lot of weird artsy, foreing and B-movies. But this... This movie is so much better that ever expected.
I've seen a lot of people complaining about the story, but it isn't about the story or what the characters are trying to accomplish as much as the characters themselves. You really get invested in every soldier and the direction makes you feel every lost of life on screen. You have to witness the brutality of war through the eyes of a buncha kids, but you don't feel sad, cause each and everyone of them understands what they are fighting for and are willing to die for it.
In the end you get this melancholic feeling of heroism and you might even shed a tear while smiling for all of the fallen soldiers saved their land.
