Redwarmin This movie is the proof that the world is becoming a sick and dumb place

Ensofter Overrated and overhyped

Actuakers One of my all time favorites.

Derrick Gibbons An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.

christiank7 What gets me is the madness of the father taking his son to a region where death is almost tangible at every corner. If you want to introduce a situation to people is there really a need to endanger others especially your own kin in the process and to what purpose? Aside from this obvious clusterfracus one just gets so annoyed with the terrible soundtrack. Over the top and totally disengaging. The ongoing stream of how bad and loathsome war is seems to be a real in with the liberal mindset of Hollywood. So we start to become a nation of do nothings which is exactly what our illustrious 'want to be' president is doing now. Greatest failure as a president in modern times. This film is just dumb and caters for those who still need weening at mothers teets as they just have never been in the real world. The other question I have is to the producers. Why are you doing this type of moronic film. Money? WHY? It is just a total drag and people who like this movie need to have a serious look in the mirror. Do not support this garbage.

jmcfrancis At its core I love what this doccie does: it presents some front line perspectives of American soldiers fighting the Taliban in Afghanistan. That in itself is impressive and at times harrowing.But then the movie wraps itself in a jacket of awful ideas. The soundtrack feels ripped from every reality show made in the past few years. I almost started to expect a host from something like Fear Factor to show up. The storytelling is also very convoluted. It skims details and personalities, briefly introducing them before running to the next plot point.While it goes out of its way to highlight the sacrifices made by the soldiers, The Hornet's Nest gives little clarity on what is going on half of the time. Other than bring across the intensity of firefights, much more isn't revealed.But my biggest problems are the cheap narrative tricks. At times moments are made more dramatic than they are, especially if it involves one of the journalists potentially getting shot. This is done twice and both times it's more a trick of editing than what actually happened.I'd liken this to Ross Kemp's Afghanistan doccies: intense, but vapid and a little bit exploitative. You don't come out of The Hornet's Nest learning much, other than Americans are great soldiers. If that is the point, this succeeds. But it could have done so much more with its material instead of feeling like a made-for-reality-TV special.

Ross Johnson A comedy for the more savvy and the elites. Follow the dumbest people ever, the us military pawn who is unknowingly fighting an illegal war even though it's fact in order to catch a guy with kidney failure who somehow was responsible for 9/11 even though he said he didn't do it and America even made a fake video of admittance for the retards that was proved to be fake as well(spoiler, they dispose of bin laden (the supervillain we never heard of before 911) many years later without evidence and then pat obama on the back), meanwhile every seal team 6 member is systematically murdered and the war rages on without end in sight. It's a really good plot, I know! All they need is something, a plot twist... it was really for profit for war companies and military budget and then plot twist again 10 years later, they find trillions of rare earth material(not oil,plot twist!) Plot twist again, the terrorists already infiltrated the guberment!Follow this cameraman who is apparently in a propaganda Hollywood production trying to make connections with his son and showing us video of a real warzone....er wait, pictures of desert, more desert, some backdrops that make it look like desert, and a village that happens to have trees. I guess they added the son part for the REALLY gullible American. Learn the history of Americas longest war against goat farmers, strap yourself in for people crying about how sad they are about invading a 3rd world area with trillions of dollars and still getting their ass handed to them by opium farmers high as a kite. Learn about masters of illusion, hiding in caves 101, how to go from cia tim osman to international world sueprvillian in 9 easy steps.10/10, the satire, the acting, the plot....would have to fake a moon mission on live TV to compare!

murphyluke4 To all those who are reviewing without seeing it and also rating the movie low who HAVEN NOT EVEN SEEN IT IS SILLY, this movie I thought would be okay, but when I watched it I was very fascinated and cried near the end :-) because of how the ending played out. (NO SPOILERS) best movie ever.I hope someone else felt the same other than me, if you are interested in wars you will love this, please try it, it's a shirt film but it's very good. I was on the edge of my seat. It was great.I was very interested in this and it was way better then I expected.This also shows how our troops go out and do their job under so much pressure but do such a good job.
