Review of Embedded

Embedded (2004 Video)
1/10
Not Funny
11 November 2005
I rented this movie because I saw Tim Robbins on David Letterman offering, in effect, that this was a very funny satire. All I got from it was a display of anger and resentment which, in my opinion, did not even rise to the level of a parody. I love antiwar movies which actually poke fun at the absurdity of conflict (the epitome "Dr. Strangelove"). Some thought probably should have gone into this endeavor before attempting to make a statement. I imagine it appeals to the extreme left folksiness.

Incidentally, I inferred from the previews that the film was not offensive to the rank and file soldier. Every element of the film was offensive to all of the military in my opinion. Should we anticipate "Embedded 2".
