Soldiers of Conscience
This was a really good movie! I have never seen a movie quite like this or from this point of view. Usually when you see true stories about men in the army whether it be on tv or in movies they are all about fighting and even excited. However, this movie showed soldiers who didn't want to fight anymore, and wanted to be at peace with themselves and the rest of the world. This movie wasn't shown from just one point of view, but from both sides. Some soldiers and commanding officers disagreed with the ones that wanted to be contientious objectors. And the soldiers who wanted to be contientious objectors gave very valid points of why they wanted to be, and had strong opinions about the matter. I just would have never of thought that people that join the army wouldn't want to kill. It makes me so happy that there are people like the contientious objectors in this world, because maybe some day there can be and end to the fighting. I disagree with the army completlely when innocent people are being murdered for no reason. It made me sick when one of the contientious objectors was telling an audience how his fellow soldiers treated prisoners and dead Iraqi's. I have a good friend that is going to Iraq in three months and he is really excited about it. I recomended this movie to him because hopefully he can change his excited mind set about going there, and actually decide if he wants to really go there. Overall, gooood movie!
