It really was. It was so awesome how they put real tactics into a Hollywood story. Were some things a bit too far with how they talked? Yeah and anyone that criticizes that I will agree with, but this whole "propaganda" and "military advertising" BS is stupid.

So what, take their uniforms off, and make it another lame action flick about a mercenary group (The A-Team) and it's all fine and dandy?

I mean this movie had like 4 mission that lead into one thing, several moments that could have very easily been extremely stereotypical that were not, and a story that makes you want to cry by being both happy and sad. I really loved how it was filmed, it was done so well, even the first person shots were done well and that surprised me.

Except that MW as a movie would be utter shit.

Oh I agree. They've just said that speaking in general terms to put it in perspective.

Yeah, don't get all my praise wrong. This movie had flaws. I mean there is a reason movies use actual actors, because beyond when they were in missions, the SEALS were a bit dull. Some of the scripting could use work, etc...

But I didn't see it for that, I saw it because they advertised a "Movie experience like no other" and I got just that. It was the most authentic war film I've ever seen.

About the video games, I see that too. There was one or two scenes when I turned to my friend and I was like "that is almost like it was right out of Battlefield 3, thats so awesome"

I just can't stand the people jumping to "its propaganda to join the seals." 1 SEALS are the hardest branch to join in the military. 2 Everyone already wants to be a SEAL why do they need to recruit people? 3 Not once did it advertise politics or anything. It simply put REAL SEALS into an action movie with REAL authentic motives. Like I said if this is propaganda to anyone then take out the Seals and put in The Rock, Bruce Lee, or whoever your favorite action star is and call it The A Team....

My personal problem is I am a HUGE supporter of our troops, and I felt that this movie was a great dedication to them. Ruining it with politics annoys me, people are missing the point. These guys go out there, save your arse, and could die doing it. If none of these guys stepped up all those bomb suits would have walked right into our country.
