Act of Valor

[sy4]

I saw Act of Valor this weekend. It is very realistic, very accurate, and all the normal Hollywood fluff and BS has been removed. Which is why Hollywood dislikes the movie so much. This movie is less art than a commentary on the lives... and deaths... of America's greatest.

This is a movie that critics absolutely hate, and the movie goers absolutely

While I agree with most of your points about Hollywood fluffing everything up, pointing to fans as proof that it is good ignores a huge factor in polls like that: self selection bias. A lot of people who would not be so kind on Rotten Tomatoes have not seen the film to be able to rate it.

I'll probably try to catch it based on YOUR recommendation, but the rotten tomatoes review would not have impressed me.

Fair enough.

I'd be interested in hearing what you thought about the movie if you do watch it.
