Reviewer Rating Review
Richard Kirkham80 - It is not emotionally wrenching, it is very much a procedural. A realistic re-creation of the initial point of the Afghan Campaign. Watch and learn a few things.

Silver Screen Riot Matt Oakes43 - A glossy war propaganda movie trojan horsed as a hero’s journey, ’12 Strong’ is *almost* good but never quite manages to unseat its jingostic tendencies, galloping to mediocrity on the backs of some none-too-interesting performances.
