SSgt. Brandon King (Ryan Phillippe) returns from a tour in IRAQ to find his world turned upside down. As he begins to realize his friends along with himself are having trouble adjusting to civilian life, he gets orders to return for another stint in IRAQ. He decides to go AWOL and in hiding to keep from being "stop lossed".

I have heard many mixed reviews of this movie, most of them being politically based. Get a grip people stop being so political and enjoy this movie for how great it really is.

This was another one of those movies that grabbed me and sucked me into the plot. I have been waiting for another movie like this to come along and leave a lingering after effect on me. This one did just that, a must watch for sure.
