Not accurate and not respectful

from New York, NY
I was a little deceived from the trailer that this would be a documentary of soldiers in the Iraq war. I was wrong. While it showed the intensity of what some troops on the front line experience, it focused more on the inaccurate myths of American soldiers, e.g., they shoot innocent Iraqis, they get drunk and punch each other for fun, they are reckless with civilian lives and their own lives just to "get an adrenaline fix", they are incapable of maintaining healthy personal relationships back home, Iraqi children throw rocks at their vehicles, etc. Being someone who has friends who have served multiple tours in Iraq and who has even lost a friend in Iraq, I was hoping for a more accurate and respectful film about their experiences.
No, I do not recommend this movie.
