The Covenant…just, not good
You know what really threw it for me? Was all of the people marching in formation on the air field to random locations. I can overlook everything else. And I'm not kidding.
Watched it. I enjoyed it. 6.5 dog treats of 10. I never got the chance to serve in Iraq or Afghanistan so know nothing of relationships with interpreters. But the whole kinda reminded me of the dudes who picked up Luttrell and saved his ass and put themselves on the line.
But you guys can tell me...how many enlisted led squad sized elements were hunting IED factories?
A lot of implausible pieces to the storyline and maybe a SGM in a SMU gets that kind of license to walk all over the battle space...but if you remove yourself from what you know and you watch it late at night. It's a decent flick.
But yes the marching formations at airfields in a combat theater was odd.
