So anything critical of our government is America-bashing? How about now with all of the people on the right criticizing Obama? I guess they're bashing our country or just exercising their freedom to criticize?

I never bothered top waste money seeing this in the theaters but caught it on cable, this is a 'war' film allrightabout the generational warfare between Baby Boomers who want to see everything in terms of Vietnam and young adults who are rightly cynical about the bill of goods they've been fed by society (a society run by the Baby Boomers who keep criticizing 'they' the whole film)
I certainly didn't pay to see this crap and didn't even bother to see it on cable. Why waste any time on it at all??? -

I didn't see the film but I caught a trailer for it on cable and I got the sense that Cruise is the "naive right wing" congressman proposing a "foolish" plan to instate a military buildup in Afghanistan. If that's the case, isn't it ironic that a military focus and increase of resources in Afghanistan was a cornerstone of Obama's campaign?

I'm a moderate conservative and liked the movie, that's all I can say. I like Redford's style. It made me think: Okay, Afghanistan is not an easy task and it costs lives and money. But DO WE ACCEPT the consequences of pulling out? When should we pull out? How can we pull out while preventing Al-Qaeda taking control of the country again? Should we kill all Al-Qaeda leaders before we pull out? This movie made me think of this questions that's why I liked it.

The OP's is a perceptive and accurate post whereas yours is foul-mouthed idiocy and ignorance wrapped in a crude pretense of moral superiority.
As is typical of your kinds of posts, you don't say where you're from. You post from the nebulous status of "non-American" because you're a moral coward. You don't have any position of substance. Boring, warmed-over Marxist clichs from 100 years ago are not substantive. You're just lashing out like an arrogant 13-year-old who presumes understanding that he doesn't, in fact, have. -

This insults our armed forces ?
your armed forces are sick animals that torture people till they say whatever you want them to say
