was anyone put off by all the army and nsa stuff?

I can't really put my finger on it, but whenever the military people were fighting it almost felt like one of those be all that you can be commercials. join the army and you will be in this elite force and kick ass. America [censored] yea!!!! maybe i am just paranoid, but there seemed to be strong "our army rules" overtones.

i guess in order to use military equipment in movies you have to get the script and movie approved by a bunch of generals, so you can't ever paint a picture of the army that is THAT negative.


all in all pretty good movie though. Bay did a good job of telling a story from the point of view of the adolescent male (the definite target audience for this movie, in addition to people wanting to relive that period).


like others have said: sector 7 subplot was a bit off, action scenes shot too close up.
