Honestly, the movie is just pure nonsense. If you actually look at the math based on that veteran spotter’s timing (you know, if you bother counting the seconds between the impact and the sound), the guy is at least half a mile away. And from that distance, he manages to snag a radio antenna—specifically a vital component—and even a canteen while the target is doing that classic zig-zagging run to dodge sniper fire? It’s ridiculous. We’re talking about a moving target being hit by a .308 Win (7.62mm NATO), which at those ranges has a bullet drop of roughly 40 feet.

Even if Jesus Christ himself were behind the scope, there's no way he's pulling off shots like that. 😁

Everything about this movie just feels leaky—it’s full of holes from start to finish. Honestly, that scene where he tears through those guys in the helicopter? Total B-movie trash. 👎

So, I just sat through one of those documentaries, you know the type, and honestly? It’s enough to make you want to throw out everything in your pantry. The whole premise was basically that all our food is toxic and the only real solution is to just stop eating entirely. 🙄
