The critics called this
movie "a thriller". But there is nothing thrilling about the United
States and it's allies trying to be policemen of the world. If you are looking for entertainment. THIS Picture is not for you. I rated it AA because it shows the state of today's military and political difficulties in dealing with "terrorism" wherever it exists.
EYE IN THE SKY stars Helen Mirren as Colonel Katherine Powell, a UK-based military officer in command of a top secret drone operation to capture terrorists in Kenya. Through remote surveillance and on-the-ground intel, Powell discovers the targets are planning a suicide bombing and the mission escalates from "capture" to "kill."
But as American pilot is about to engage, a nine-year old girl enters the kill zone triggering an international dispute, reaching the highest levels of US and British government, over the moral, political, and personal implications of modern warfare.
Again, If the story behind this movie is a true, then this film that shows the very sad state of affairs and the great difficulty that exists in our struggle against bands of Muslim as well as other militants/terrorists throughout the world.
If this film is a true depiction of how our military system works . . . then we are in a no-win world with a lot of endless trouble ahead.
