I plan on going to it. Should be interesting to see how actual SEAL's perform in the movie. I do find it a little strange that active duty personel agreed to be filmed, they dont normally do that in the SF community.

At least with this film, the actors will be more believeable.

If you haven't seen it yet you should check out the Battle for Haditha.



The film was shot in Jordan, with Iraqi refugees and US military personnel as actors and extras.

I'm betting on it, since the director allowed the SEAL Team to work out the details in various scenes, to the effect of "This is how we would really do it." 

They also used live ammo in many of the scenes.

That's a great movie. I've watched it twice already.

It's not exactly "Team America", but it is honest and doesn't judge either side.

I thought it was pretty good. It's hollywood of course and the ending was kind of predictable, some of the scripting could have been a bit better, but all around worth the money to go see it for me.
