Fort Bliss

I served 8 years in my state militia which is overseen by the National Guard. My father and stepfather served the military during wartime.

I had never heard of this film before, I spent 12 years in the Army, been deployed to various countries. I had to leave my child behind.

I spent several years stationed at Bliss while living In El Paso, and in the back of my head I expected more video of the installation. Nevertheless it was a good movie; Michelle and Manolo's performance was remarkable.

And not much more. The acting is pretty decent though, but the past couple of years have produced way to much American propaganda (Camp X- ray, American Sniper, etc).

Was lucky to score tickets to see Ft. Bliss at the close of the G.

Great performances from the whole cast but especially Monaghan. Also, good to see John Savage again - in a small role as Maggie's father.

A wonderful but heartbreaking little gem, with Michelle Monaghan turning in a world-class performance not unlike Emily Blunt's in Edge of Tomorrow. God, can she be tough, especially in the scenes where she goes toe to toe with fellow soldiers--not all of whom are, shall we say, evolved.

SSG Swann was in the Afghanistan conflict as a combat medic, and she was exposed to some situations that no human that has not been in combat could understand. I think the film gives viewers a taste of what the most simple encounters there were like.

After a 15 month tour in Afghanistan, decorated Army medic Maggie Swann (Michelle Monaghan) returns to a cool reception. Her ex-husband Richard (Ron Livingston) is engaged to his pregnant girlfriend Alma (Emmanuelle Chriqui).
