Let me just be clear that this isn't a war movie. It's a movie that delivers insight on war and its effects on citizen-soldiers. While there tends to be no shortage of the terrible impacts of war covered today in the news, the psychological trauma of soldiers themselves are often overlooked since they are in no comparison to the massacre of civilians and the destruction of cities and homes. But it's clear, with a thorough watch through Waltz with Bashir, that young men sent to soldier for their country are victims, too. 7.9/10.
