Review of Redacted (2007) by Jiemin L — 20 Apr 2008
It's a very difficult business to give a score to such a movie. It's not another war movie depicting the past, in which no matter how cruel images you see, you always can comfort yourself by thinking that it is the past. This film, however, shows you the ongoing killing and stuff much much more difficult to watch and think about. All those atrocities and humiliation towards those people are actually happening in the same time span as yours. This particular point adds so much feelings and sympathy to me when I watch it and I cannot jump out and criticize the movie itself.
This makes it impossible for me to treat it as 'another' war movie.
