19-year-old Billy Lynn is brought home for a victory tour after a harrowing Iraq battle. Through flashbacks the film shows what really happened to his squad - contrasting the realities of war with America's perceptions.

8.0
"Even in regular old 2D, Billy Lynn's Long Halftime Walk was one of the year's most quietly meditative experiences, respectful, despite the frills. Its success will depend largely on how well it does in the awards season. It'll fail. But don't let that deter you."

"Clint Eastwood's portrayal of the predicament of a decorated military hero in American Sniper was more hard-hitting. This one's effective in portions, but falls short of holding your undivided attention."

"This real telling of young Army officers will connect with your consciousness and not the perfect film critic inside you."
