Summary - Very Good 3.5

Brad Pitt stars in this unique combination of wartime comedy and drama. Although the critics panned the film, I loved the comedic look at Obama’s wartime politics and hope that a charismatic general can solve a failed foreign policy. This isn’t just a political comedy thank goodness. Pitt was great as the quirky general (whom I believe was supposed to by McChyrstal), his staff was a hoot, and a string of cameos were hilarious: Ben Kingsley as President Karzai, Reggie Brown as Obama, and others – ending with a surprise cameo by Russel Crowe. Nice!
