But when he was later deployed to Iraq, Jerry was an older man, a father of three and embittered by broken promises and unfulfilled desires.

He lives a life of poverty, his children afraid of him and his wife, Nora (Vinessa Shaw), unsympathetic and unhappy.

Good start, but then it gets ruined

Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.

It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.

My wife and I watched a screening of No Greater Love last night. It is well made. The interviews of the soldiers during and post combat were powerful. I am not sure how this chaplain got permission to take a camera into combat, but he did. It can be difficult to watch but please do. The bravery and sacrifice by these men and women are a true inspiration. As one officer said of the sacrifice of one of his soldiers, "where do men like this come from?" They come from homes across this nation, every color, and from many different faith backgrounds. The closing scenes of the reunion back at Fort Campbell were perfect. Well done, Chaplain.

So I was lucky enough to watch the advance screening of this movie and I have to say I was not disappointed in the slightest. I myself am in the Canadian military and this movie really show a true and unique aspect to what life is like on deployment. it doesn't sugar-coat things and it tells you the honest truth of what its like. This movie does overlap with the movie "Hornet's Nest" at parts a little bit but it was still excellent. I would definitely recommend this movie to anyone with an interest in military life, or the general idea of it. This isn't exactly an "action movie". I'd categorize it more as an action drama. Sort of like Zero Dark Thirty (2012), but documentary style, and no Hollywood B.S. Watching this movie really shines some perspective on what people go through.

Impactful, powerful story of the deployment of US Army 101st Airborne battalion 'No Slack' during Afghanistan war on terror. Actual battle footage mixed with commentary and interviews with the men that were there. This is the first attempt I have seen to describe what happened in Afghanistan and give the details of what our boys went through. At times I wanted to stop watching because it is gut wrenching. This film offers no solution to the aftermath of war but may help you better understand what your brothers, friends, neighbors that were there went through.

By far one of the best war documentaries I have ever seen. Every American should watch this to even begin to grasp what our soldiers go through, from the day to day operations to the tragedies they endure. The storyline is excellent and the way the movie dives into specific occurrences throughout the deployment keeps you interested and engaged throughout the film. Raw footage is what makes this documentary so special. While films like Restrepo and Korengal are a couple that I have always felt really portrayed the war, No Greater Love comes in right there with them. Excellent doesn't even begin to describe this film nor do it justice.I hope to see this on the big screen later this year.
