I had expectations to this film, as I really like the first one, but it didn't exactly manage to live up to the first. I liked the idea of the setup, but I didn't feel the same kind of dread and uneasyness as I did during the first one.
I was stressed at times, but it never quite managed to peak. The revelation at the end didn't grab me.
However I did enjoy it on some level, it works well as a scary movie, I might actually say it would have benefitted from being a bit longer, letting us know a little more about the victims.
I think I might have let it pass as okay if it wasn't the second in a series, but as a follow up to the original it's dissapointing.

I have to say I really liked it, and that's saying a lot as I usually can't stand war movies.
I really liked this one, maybe because it was more about the people than the war. The cinematography was wonderful, really stunning. The actors all did a great job.
I know the film fared better outside the US than in the US, I kind of get it as it doesn't really show a positive view of the american army, but come on, it's not like we believe all the propaganda stuff either.
Long story short, I really enjoyed this film, and it might actually end up in my DVD collection at some point
