Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
The film is a tribute to the courage, tenacity and sorrow of the men with their boots on the ground in a place very far away.

Those of us who haven't served on active duty can't know what it's like. Taken together, "Restrepo" and "Korengal" brings us about as close to the experience as we can, or would want, to get.

"Restrepo" felt like the story of how boys become men. "Korengal" feels like the story of how strangers become family.

In a series of expertly edited interviews conducted with infantrymen on their way home after a year in the Korengal Valley, Junger exposes us to the war's psychological toll.

Most fascinating is the seemingly unanimous feeling that while deployment in Korengal was hard and heartbreaking, these veterans would do it all again just to stay together, to remain brothers who mutually understand something no on else will ever know.
