This is a movie based from actual events as told from the book by Marcus Luttrell. It shows the actions of Seal team 10 on Operation Red Wing, in the hunt for notorious Al Qaeda leader Ahmad Shahd.
A small team of 4 Navy Seals go on a search for Ahmad Shahd in the mountains of Afghanistan. Once the seals dig in on there first night above the Afghan strong hold where Shahd is at, they wake up to a small group of goat herders that stumble upon there position. They capture them and struggle with what to do since they can' t get clearance over the radio from command. Ultimately they choose to let the go which proves to be a bad decision. They struggle to get to safety for an extraction. The movie has a tragic ending.
This is a great movie about what our military men an women go through on deployments. I want to thank all that have served and have been lost. I strongly recommend watching this gripping, emotional movie. It is not recommended for anyone under 13, as it is very graphic and violent. I give this movie a 5+ out of 5.
