    This came out over here in the UK last month. It does a lot of things well - good acting, some smart dialogue - but it's weird. Yeah, there are a number of Native American actors but even including Wes Studi, they get maybe 50 lines total. But as good as anyone can be, they were fine at loitering in the background, silently setting up and taking down tents, cooking dinner, etc. etc.

    And
    ...So Christian Bale is this burned out veteran at the start of the film. And after a mission which sees all but one of his men die, and the family he was supposed to be protecting slaughtered, he's got a new lease on life! I guess the cure for PTSD is more doses of senseless killing.
