The Messenger

Woody Harrleson is usually thought of a a humorous sidekick. In this movie he grabs hold of the character of Captain Tony Stone and carries the film. Ben Foster's Staff Sgt Will Montgomery is considered the lead but Harrelson's Tony is the glue that holds everything together. This movie is about two soldiers that have to break the news to the families of the service men and women that the they have died. This has many powerful scenes and explores the variety of reactions that these soldiers see but it seemed like scenes and not full movie. I give this a one thumb up for respect of all those who serve for our country and especially those who have gave the ultimate sacrifice. SUPPORT OUR TROOPS!
