| Comment by AS: | The documentary briefly illustrates a tiny portion of the problems that the
U.S. army has in Irak with the 120.000 private contract workers. Of course,
since security matters are concerned, we can't expect a very thorough
investigation. It is no wonder that the film can only give some impressions of a
private security company and their day-to-day problems. Even the issue that
the costs for private security contractors are intransparent to the tax payer
wasn't given that much effort.
