Giuseppe Sedia Kino Mania Łukaszewicz does not spend too much time in drafting the psychology of the recruits. [He] offers no cinematic frills, but puts most of his efforts into filming the largest battle in which Polish soldiers had participated since the end of WWII Rated: 3/5 Aug 29, 2024 Full Review Read all reviews

Monika M Good polish movie about their mission in Iraq. Unknown battle which should be known. Battle that was impossible to win. Strength of the movie is showing that not everything is running perfectly and there are though decisions with which commanders are facing you can't learn on any training. And the personal fight with the fear. 4 stars because of only polish subtitles. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 07/10/23 Full Review Read all reviews
