This is based on true events so the story has some credibility attached to it from the get go, but this doesn't automatically make it interesting or engaging to watch. Overall, the movie feels flat and the acting is quite weak. The characters are not developed naturally and their relationships and interactions feel faked and forced. There are opportunities and angles in the plot that could have been exploited and better executed on but those were missed. At the end, the movie makes me feel that the victims died due more to their stupidity than their gallantry.
