WHY (do I want to see this): I read the book recently; really good. It described how the war in Afghanistan had been reimagined as a victory (or as a good cause) by the new nationalist powers in Russia (ie, Putin). This movie was cited as an example: an Afghan-era plot mixed with 21st-century American action movie effects (and lack of plot and characterization, probably). That sounds like a weird, fun mix to me. "They stood together while their country fell apart." Right.
