I have always liked Guy Ritchie movies. The way this story was told and executed was excellent.
But the only thing that lets it down is the propaganda portraying America as the good guys coming to make Afghanistan a better country. Kind of like the mindset of typical Fox News and CNN viewers, which does make you feel like you've lost a brain cell when absorbing the story.
But credit given where its due. If we put politics aside and just watch this as an individual story it was really well put together. The best scene was Ahmed carrying Mckinley up the mountain roads on a cart, you could feel the frustration and emotion in this scene, the music used was perfect. Well done Guy Ritchie for trying something different.
