“Redacted” is yet another Iraq war flick that sparked mixed opinions. Apparently, there were some people who found it terrible, commenting about the bad acting and plot. There were others who hailed this a cinematic gem. At the Venice Film Festival, Brian De Palma reportedly received a 10-minute standing ovation by viewers (video link).
Synopsis: Inspired by real events and the ever-emerging realities of an on-going war, REDACTED explores the consequences of placing a group of young American soldiers into a morally ambiguous universe. Pushed to their very limits, the film portrays the tragic events surrounding a US army squad that targets plus persecutes an innocent Iraqi girl plus her family, culminating in a brutal rape plus murder. The film addresses the innocent casualties of war plus reveals the general helplessness surrounding the war in Iraq. A fictional version of the truth, REDACTED forces the viewer to question the filters through which we see plus accept events in our world. Ultimately, REDACTED begs the question: Once we know the truth, what is the value of war plus the worth of all its tragedies?
