The concept of military cyborgs, battle robots, hunter killer droids, all that has been done and redone, over and over, so going in I was just figuring another B grade stereotypical rehash, but actually, quite better than expected. This involves very seedy ongoings with CIA, dubious military tech companies, mercenaries, and some young doctors who happen to stumble into the wrong place at the wrong time . . . But there's actually much more going on. Set in Vietnam, many of the related underlying social layers and issues get illuminated in this fast paced, miltary tech gone very awry hunter killer adventure, but with more human interest aspects than what might be expected.
The casting and acting was exceptionally well done, it was all a good fit for what it was. No spoilers here, but the ending is, well, not what might usually be expected in such a story . . . And left a few questions dangling, but all in all, certainly worth the time to watch.
