Fair enough. I didn't think it was the best thing ever, but when it got into a groove, I found myself really moved. It's really a smaller story, and many of the characters felt real to me. I particularly enjoyed Garrett Hedlund's role.

I almost wonder if the story might have been better served by only having part of the film told with HFR - I think you could make a good argument either way about whether that should be the Iraq flashbacks or the American "present day" sequences. I found that, when combined with 3D, the HFR...
