Solid Movie
Positives:
1. XZ's acting has improved. He didn't look like he was acting during the scenes where he was running for his life.
2. He was also believable as your average family man. One thing I have noticed about XZ is that he has no problem downplaying his attractiveness for a role if it fits.
3. The movie was a realistic portrayal of the brutality and cruelty of war
Negatives
1. The characters were constantly screaming. Not sure if it's a cultural thing but it was hard to get use to.
2. Several other posters mentioned gallow humor. I didn't find that the gallow humor worked, but maybe it was lost in translation for me
