Just another Hollywood confection, unrealistic military.


This movie was an entire moral fantasy. The main driver of the plot was the remote camera 'bird' and 'beetle' which don't exist and take you right out of the movie. Without them there would be no plot. The military would have struck as they have done in Pakistan for example and not spent over an hour moralizing about killing innocent people.

Entertaining but false.

Yes, the certainty of the terrorists in the house and the explosives all depended on this tiny camera flying around INSIDE the house. And, not to mention, a house which evidently has no ceilings (kind of like a TV or movie set), that allows the little camera to fly above from room to room. So unrealistic in a movie that seems to be trying to take itself seriously.
