Operation Hollywood (2004)
The American military forces has a long tradition of cooperation with the movie industry. Movie studios can save millions of dollars by securing use of military stock footage, equipment and manpower. But there will only be cooperation if the scripts are depicting the armed forces in a favorable way. The most realistic and successful war movies has generally been made without the military's support.

This is ultimately a movie about the very bad things that can happen when we don't address our unease, when we just try to brush it off, whether that's to fit in or to preserve our self-image.
All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.
A film of deceptively outspoken contemporary relevance, this is cinema at its most alert, alarming and alive.
It is neither dumb nor smart enough to be fun, and spends way too much time with its boring human characters.
