5.0 out of 5 stars A World Unseen, January 27, 2010

This review is from: Tattooed Under Fire (DVD)

I never thought I could learn the story of someone's life from their tattoos, but, duh, I did in this film. It's probably the most powerful way to find out who a person is - at least from these guys. It made me think so much more deeply about who this young boys (about to become men) truly are. I hadn't realized the personal side of our "wars" - these guys are just so young. And they think they have no alternative but to enlist. It's a film that will make you think.

5.0 out of 5 stars evocative, poignant and highly personal, January 15, 2010

Koko Yonekawa "Koko Yonekawa" (Austin, TX United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Tattooed Under Fire (DVD)

An evocative, poignant and highly personal look at the human and cultural cost of war. The young men and women are introduced in this film as they are being tattooed; raw recruits at first and then as returning soldiers, changed in ways only their fellow soldiers can grasp. The filmmakers captured a unique perspective of the impact of the war in Iraq

I've seen many attempts to portray the ravages of war on humanity, but none so clearly displays the effects on the many who face the front lines. Deeply moving. A very well thought out film.
