It should be noted that this review was based on a 2011 Digital Cinema viewing of the theatrical version. Jimi owns the Redux, but this was a whole difference experience.
Starting off as if your falling through a vat of acid, this film grabs you by the neck and doesn't let go. The cinematography is as good as it gets and the music works majestically with the intense visuals. There are many layers to the film and it is an experience which you won't soon forget. The movie has a sense of journey and takes the viewer along through the eyes of the main protagonist, putting you in the film. The story explores many issues of morality, war, human nature and just mixes it all up and throws it at you. There is great humour as well which seems to accompany the hypocrisy that the filmmakers are mocking. Let go and witness, the horror...... the horror!
