IMDb plot summary: An idiosyncratic general confronts opposition from enemies, allies, and bureaucrats while leading a massive rebuild operation in Afghanistan.
Directed by David Michôd. Starring Brad Pitt, Daniel Betts, John Magaro, and Emory Cohen.
The tone of this movie is all over the place. While it's telling an interesting story and getting into some interesting details, it's too serious to actually be a comedy but too broadly goofy to actually be a drama. The result is an awkward tone shift every five minutes, and it's messy.
1.5 stars.
