This is not a classically great film, but it's a profoundly good, small independent film, made on a shoestring budget of less than one million. Yet it feels and looks like a major production with all the bells and whistles. The casting, editing and the performances of the cast are first rate, authentic. The arrangement of the scenes and the cinematography are especially stunning -- at once intimately realistic and dramatically expansive. With just a handful of nickels and dimes, Ryan has put together a small masterpiece about the quite courage of the common soldier, about real faith, about a small band of regular guys who do the extraordinary just because it’s the right and necessary thing to do. -- Bluemoon
