Dan Krauss’s film depicts in stark terms the way war can strip souls of conscience, something made even more wrenching when viewed with the knowledge that it’s based on horrific true events.

A war film unlike any I have personally seen before, but not a perfect one. Has important things to say, but has them delivered, while, not unbelievably, blandly. _The Kill Team_ shows us that Wolff’s character is having a moral crisis, but never his thought process, nor that of any other character, and the reasoning behind why they **aren’t** having one.

_Final rating:★★½ – Had a lot that appealed to me, didn’t quite work as a whole._

“Absurd portrayal”-guy didn’t even watch the film. Film hits too close to home.
“Let me preface my remarks by noting I served three tours in Afghanistan during OEF. I saw Kill Team while visiting my sister who was in grad in Venice last spring. …” (random-70778 on 18 Aug 2019) Nopers, it did not screen “last spring” in Venice Film Festival as this guy wants us to believe. The films world premiere was in Tribeca, late April 2019. Venice is in fall, not in spring and after Tribeca, it wasn’t even released until way after his review (namely in October 2019). So, what else is he making up? Does he have a sister? Maybe. Was she a grad or ever in Venice? Who knows. Did he ever wear a uniform while actually being part of a military body? Just as likely as not. I’ve seen my fair share of pretenders, online and even on the streets, to be somewhat vary of people who claim a soldiers expertise in order to make a political point (or some other scam). It seems imdb has become just another platform that has fallen victim to ideology-driven “reviews.”

Alas, you just gotta love the irony in this specific case. One important question of the film is that of the bystander, the one who didn’t commit a crime and the circumstances that make the simple act, otherwise known as “calling the cops”, an act of courage for some, an act of treason for others. Examples of such circumstances are not limited to the military, but in the case of the film, they are. The overreaction in some of the “reviews” (or fake reviews) shows this in a brilliant way: not the criminal or crime is the focus for enragement for the ideologically motivated, but the one who calls it out. This of course speaks for a certain understanding that the crime, in fact, is a crime. Yet, this horrible crime should be something we should not care about. Again this bears the question if when speaking about ISIS/Daesh crimes, those people even bother about the horrid crimes they commit or if they’re somewhat happy to found an opposing criminal, who can become the all-explaining excuse for commiting crimes themselves.

The reason the films hit too close to home is not the psychopathic killer that Alex Skarsgård performs in an outrageously convincing way or the (moral) dilemma of Nat Wolff, but exactly because of the peer pressure of the other bystanders. True psychopaths are pretty rare, even in professions with higher than average concentration (lawyers, ceos, soldiers) and the film does well in not trying to imply Sgt. Deeks would be the everyday case. It painfully shows that the damage a single monster in a position of power can inflict, is the result of willing bystanders. This is what makes the film partly painful to watch. The atmosphere of aggression and the expectation to accept rather than report crimes, is much more common than the murderous psychopat and showing this makes the film as painful as necessary.

It reminds us that standing up against evil is often so very hard, because normal people doing nothing and expecting you to do the same, is the most dangerous form of evil.

Watch it, it’s surely entertaining, but it’s not another hurray-war type of pseudo-warmovie.

moral dilemmas with a backdrop of war
8.5 rating. Snitches get stitches. I liked this movie because even I felt like I wasn’t sure which side I was on at times.

Acting was seriously on point – Nat Wolff was great and I can’t wait to see more of him. His presence was really nuanced and subtle but his character held all the emotional weight and you were right there with him, even though the script was sparse for his character…most of what needed to be communicated was done wordlessly and really effectively. Adam Long was equally talented, of course the great Alexander Skarsgard never dissapoints and his character manages to be charming and seductive as always. The acting was really top shelf. I suspect the angsty script and lush characters really inspired the strong performances. It was pretty gripping.

I didn’t like it as a “war movie”. The setting is in Afghanistan and so you expect action (my mistake), But really the war is there only as a backdrop to flawless character studies. I suspect many people will be falsely drawn to this movie, hoping it is something else when really it’s a drama. I look at the poster and feel it could be misleading. There is no action is this movie. Well a bit, but not enough to warrant the plume of smoke on the poster. The marketing may have been misrepresentative here. Question of managing expectations; it just so happens I love good acting, engaging storytelling and Alexander Skarsgard – so I wasn’t so dissappointed.

I really loved the jealousy and vying for attention that the characters had for Sargent Deeks (Skarsgard) The whole situation was entirely plausible and it shouldn’t have been, which is why the story was so good.

I think the low scores are from people who like action stuff like Hobbs & Shaw and didn’t read up to understand what they were about to watch. This is a really solid movie and some of the concepts are still lingering inside me. (the conscience bullet)

I loved it.
