          Having not seen the movie Three Kings, I would recommend finding out.

            It’s a really good movie about the bullshit that happened during the time the U.S. was in Iraq in the 90s mixed with a good heist story.

              I hope they extensively portrait how brave, humble (but manly man way), and aid giving soldiers bring freedom to these poor countries. Or is it communist?

                It’s a pretty honest portrayal of how badly America fucked things up. That’s why George Clooney is in it.

                I don’t think you’ll find it especially big on ass-kissing Americans and American policy considering John Ridley, who wrote it, also wrote 12 Years a Slave.

                  I didn’t mean to imply that. I already guessed that the movie is the exact opposite from your explanation. 😁
