  • i've got pity on the US soldiers, cause they don't know better.. the taliban is funded by the US government themselves.. the same group was supported by the us to overthrow Gaddafi's gov.

    hopefully americans will have the basic common sense.

    hate to say it americans, but you're on the wrong side of history.. if you take a look around.. you're government is actually the most abbusive superpower in history, yet you're own gov and media makes you think that box cutters are coming to get you.

  • @2IAN4 Do us all a favor and shut the fuck up.

  • @tdf4890 what do you mean us? you and what army bitch? funny how you can't say shit cause everything i say is trued and you fuckin idiots are too pussy to accept it.

  • @gundamskull45 you can't call apple oranges dude. it is what it is.

  • @2IAN4 dude shut the fuck up. im actually enlisted and will fuck you up. stop talking shit cause your obously wrong. our boys are out fighting for a cause, each one different and taking bullets so you can be safe pretending to be a bad ass on you tube.

  • @btsvox9 you're enlisted for what? if you don't notice, you're actually the attacker.. you enlisted to conquer countries and kill civilians then.

    taking bullets? Us militar is in their country and you're the one taking bullets.. oh the ignorance of the american soldier.

  • I was in a valley less than 50 miles away from this one less than a year ago in the same province......................­..let me tell you it SUCKS.

  • I would Photography every square inch .... no where to HIDE :)

  • @b1t. You are the worst kind of moron out there. You put up videos of war video games then run your mouth about the very people these games are based on. Why would you even play war games if you think that all soldiers should die? And second learn some proper grammar. You are as good as a football bat.

  • God Bless.... Danish army.. Afghanistan 09-10

  • I just love these fucking retards that keep saying we are just sheep serving the rich. Let's just assume we all ETS and stop enlisting new soldiers. How long would it take for Mexico or China or Russia etc.... To come here and take us over? About five years. Stop whining and go back out and occupy something. Fucking pacifist do nothing, candle and sandle granola eating lazy fucking gimme gimmes!!

  • @SandTrooper77 sometime i think really that killing of 99% of all humans on earth would be fine because the dump people that serving countrys would be dead.

  • I just watched this fil, and as a sailor... I feel as tho I joined the wrong branch!

  • Maybe you don't know but the song is Bulgarian song the name on the song is Delio the rebel is going out

  • I find Armadillo better just saying

  • Watching this again right now on tv. I've seen it probably 10+ times. Never gets old.

  • were they in the 10th mountain division?

  • @SmittyMane69 korengal valley

  • @SmittyMane69 wow sorry i just realized my answer does not answer your question and i dont know the answer to your question so yup, sorry

  • @SmittyMane69 No they were Battle company of the 173rd Airborne Div.

  • i think iv seen this film a good 6 times and still hasn't gotten old

  • Haven't had a chance to watch it yet. I will though!! Denmark also made a doc here's some scary footage! :S /watch?v=9F2dO1LveM0&feature=r­elated

  • this movie was extrordinary, if you get the chance, watch it.

  • i found the full movie on here but it was in russian..wtf??

  • I'm not a believer, but still... may God bless Restrepo that he may rest in peace.

  • jajajajajajajaj me rio de los yankis d mierda. Manipulación mediatica clasica de hollywood jajajajajj. Hay que ser muy estupido para tomar como cierto ese documental.

  • this was infantry or special forces????

  • @david37112 11B infantry

  • 1,000th comment

  • @11B30Inf ...And lol, "my life revolves around what you say here"...

    ...And you quoted me first. See, you really are a huge dumbass... It fits with your patriotism.

  • What a beautiful place. Its such a shame we're all fighting to notice it. I hope this war ends soon so each side can go home to their families.

  • I saw Restrepo in hope to understand what my Son is going thru in Afghanistan! I thank God that my Son survived his first combat 15 month tour in Iraq and now almost 3 years later he is on his 2nd combat tour! I am too old to fight now and retired back in Feb 2010 with roughly 30 years in the Active Army and Calif Nat Guard. I wish that I wasn't told old to fight..........For I gladly take the place of my Son and let him enjoy life with his family.....

  • @11B30Inf Sir: Your statement is humbling and I stand corrected. In addition to the service men and women, families such as yours are everything to this country. I am former army (just 4 years), though not from a military family. My 2 young children and I are presently living under the protection of your son and all those serving. I pray my boy never has to go to war and put me through what you are experiencing. Thank you and all families of those serving.

  • @michross70 Thank you for the kind words and one bit of good News is that my Son is on Leave back in Germany where his wife and son is..... Today is his 30th birthday too....

  • Political discussions over this video miss the point. Stick such opinions on Fox or MSNBC clips. This movie demonstrates the temperance, fortitude and sacrifice of our service men. Enlist or just thank them. Whatever decisions we collectively made as a democracy is the cause but does not justify judging the professionalism and pain these men demonstrated and endured for us. They defend your right to make mis-placed comments. We should respect them regardless of the politics. Thank you 173rd.

  • So what did this platoon accomplish? Building a little fort on top of a mountain and losing a few friends in the process, only to have it taken back at the end of it all. Stop putting your life on the line for your leaders. They don't give a fuck about you even though they do a pretty damn good job pretending they do.

  • @Chindro2828 It would help if you did yourself a favor and did a little more independent research and read the book that runs parallel to this doc called "War". Lot's of important information in there, but maybe knowing as little as possible when you start spouting off is your bag. I don't know. I won't stop you.

  • @thegei Alright, i'll read the book and get back to you. I'm actually getting more excited thinking about how my perception might change after this. Will i recant my question and statement or will i echo it even louder?

  • @Chindro2828 Time will tell friend.

  • American servicemen are nothing but dumb stupid animals used as cannon fodder for Americas failed foreign policy adventures.

  • @duncan7599 you're one fuckin retard. If you dont know the purpose of "serve your country", -->you're not an American. We go to war and show patriotism. I should punch your face for even posting that comment. If you lived in the United States, then you are a disgrace to this nation. We are a nation. United We Stand, Divided We Fall. USA Forever and R.I.P those who have Perished in this god for saken war.

  • @REDSCOUT3 Hey you naive sheep, that comment I posted is from Henry Kissinger himself. So just want to let everyone know what government officials think about military men. So if you are in the military then you are the one fuckin retard and dumbass sheep for leting them send you off to be nothing but cannon fodder for these failed foreign policy adventures.

  • @duncan7599 Quoting out of context. Not untypical for those who acquire citizenship by accident of birth, contribute nothing and twist history to their own ends while insulting those protecting us or working to improve our country. While your statement may apply to some of our elected leaders, there is no need for you to direct such bile in the direction of our service men and women. Show respect or enlist or get elected and change things otherwise your free speech is just noise. Thanks Military

  • @duncan7599 calm down

  • @duncan7599 Your rhetoric of hate for those who serve or still serving in the military is astounding! But what did i expect form the spoiled me me me Generation! I wish sometimes that I could have you boy genius to take the place of those who are still fighting over there. Yep! spend a week in my Son boots and see what it is like boy! You would probably whimper, cry out loud and probably shit in your pants... I would gladly trade your pathetic life for my Son to come home!

  • @11B30Inf Citizen soldiers like PFC Restrepo (May he rest in peace), his comrades and your son are everything to this country. During these difficult economic times, I continue to see Americans buy drinks for and talk to service men/women to thank them for their work regardless of political views. Thank you for the time given that should otherwise be spent with your son; I trust he will return safely.

  • @11B30Inf Sorry to tell you this but you and your son are nothing but sheep who bought into the lies of Americas wars and foreign policy disasters. Your son is nothing but cannon fodder who no one cares about except you and the rest of his family. The avererage American like me doesnt care about him or his service to because he does not serve us. He serves rich old men and rich defense contracters. And I don't hate anyone but you don't like my views so you assume it's hate. Your just ignorant.

  • @duncan7599 Now I feel sorry for you; make no mistake your words are hateful. You are either, a very sad/angry below average American blaming others for your own lack of intelligence/compassion or you are not an American. Does anyone care for you? Only the unloved hate as much as you. I don’t read anything constructive in your conclusions: What are you doing to improve this system that evolved over 200 yrs and was based on philosophies, political/economic treaties 2000 yrs in the making?

  • @michross70 You see my comments as hate because of your own short sighted views that you spent on your whole life in your proteced unchallenged bubble of a macho head butting hurrahh military culture of death. No I actually feel sorry for you my naive friend for I have no hate for anyone. Do tell me do you hate Muslims and Arabs? Do you blame them for 911 and want revenge. I am sure you do. Has anyone practiced fired a gun here picturing a Arab at the target? Now my child who is full of hate.

  • @duncan7599 I’m a naturalized American who grew up in Europe and served with NATO. Europe backs America because the US prevented the Soviets over running us and now Europe/US/Russia/China agrees that extremism cannot be allowed to gain momentum as in WW2. Russia and China are moving towards capitalist democracies; believe it or not, the world is improving but still needs our military. You could move to Nepal but the chances are you’ll hate people there too. My brother’s wife is Muslim. Namaste

  • @duncan7599 You.....are NOT the average American who don't give a crap about us boy genius! The real average Americans have come up to me from time to time thanking me for my Service! And almost the same people are giving thanks to my Son too! I saw your stupid channel baby troll and it just shows that you don't know a ga dam thing about those who have served or still serving in the military! Until you walk my Son's boot for a week then maybe I will allow you to bad mouth me?

  • @11B30Inf Where do I begin with your naive comment. If You think that most Americans care about these wasteful wars and the military fighting man of death then lets look at recent presidential elections. 1992-Draft dodging Bill Clinton defeats WW2 hero George HW Bush. 1996-Bill Clinton defeats WW2 hero Bob Dole. 2000-Weakend warrior George W. Bush ( almost defeats ) Vietnam Veteran Al Gore. 2004-George W. Bush defeats Vietnam Vet John Kerry. 2008 Barack Obama defeats Vietnam hero John McCain.

  • @duncan7599 Just shows me how your little tiny pathetic life is boy genius! You want those people you just put up as your heroes go right ahead.... But remember this boy genius.......your in the stinking minority with your fucked up thoughts! So If you really hate America there is Canada, Holland, France, and Italy you can always move too.

  • @duncan7599 Is this the death threat I made you boy genius! .......this is what I said to you moron:....You would probably whimper, cry out loud and probably shit in your pants... I would gladly trade your pathetic life for my Son to come home! Where is the death threat boy genius! Can you really read what it means and what I am saying? It means trade places with my Son so he don't have to fight and be able to come home! Now that embarrass you enough go whine to code pink about me bub...

  • Comment removed

  • @REDSCOUT3 Yet another brainwashed jerk off... I pity you.

  • @Pentagon1311 you kids dont understand what it is like to be in the military... I feel bad for the next generation of people...

  • @REDSCOUT3 What's there to understand, you were put through suffering because you we're brainwashed with patriotism, religion and "serving your country". I feel bad for this generation as i'm older than you...

  • @Pentagon1311 A sad sad little tiny pathetic life you got when serving your country is a bad thing to do..... I would say grow up foolish boy but that is too late for you now..... At the age of 31 you should be a better person and love your country..... Instead you became some kind of kool-aid drinker that is acting like a High School drop out.....

  • @11B30Inf The idea that you should love and hold dearly arbitrarily set imaginary borders defined by a government with varying interests is simply foolish. Perhaps religion has something to do here, along with ignorance, that's why every country has a church that's deeply entangled with their "national identity" which is also just made up bullshit. You're an idiot...

  • @Pentagon1311 ...better to be a idiot in your eyes then to be a fucking moron who has no idea  who and what we are..... Sad life you got there when your pathetic troll life revolves around what I say in here..... Enjoy your corrupt little life boy genius! My life has been very good to me and I would not trade place with yours for any amount of money in the world..........

  • @11B30Inf Even if you had the best life in the world i would not want a trade solely because of your incredible stupidity...

  • @Pentagon1311 I rather have my simple mind then a mine that is sooooo full of crap like yours bub!

  • @11B30Inf Yup, like they say, ignorance is bliss. Now go and support Em'erica!

  • @Pentagon1311 ignorance is bliss?!! Then stop living in your stupid fantasy and join the real world boy genius..... How funny that your silly pathetic life revolve around what i say in here.........  Kinda sad don't you think Einstein?

  • @11B30Inf "How funny that your silly pathetic life revolve around what i say in here" - and yet you were the one who quoted me, your stupidity fits with your patriotism as i said before.

  • @Pentagon1311 Like I said before Einstein is how silly your little pathetic life revolves around what I say in here.... Here is a phone number to make your compliant on me! It is: 1-800-WAA WAAA!

  • @11B30Inf You will make a good soldier because you really are fearless in exploring the realms of absolute stupidity.

  • @Pentagon1311 What was that old childish saying when you were in grammar school boy genius? Oh! It takes one to know one..... Stupidity is in your ball park Son! You come here at this forum and for what? To flaunt your childish troll Intellect??? Go home little boy .....Haven't you embarrass yourself enough in here.....

  • @11B30Inf Embarrassed, not embarrass. It's funny because you were ranting something about grammar in the same post and yet you don't even know how to form a correct Present Perfect question...

  • @Pentagon1311 Wow! I see mommy troll had to help you out with the big words and sentencing again..... Go home baby troll.....Mommy need to change your diapers......

  • @11B30Inf Unsuccessful troll is unsuccessful...

  • @Pentagon1311 You should know baby troll............ you should know!

  • To Tim Hetherington, Restrepo, SGT Ruegul, and anyone else who passed away during this war RIP, you will never be forgotten. People say the army is weak but they havent seen anything. Im joining airborne infantry in a couple of months and i hope i dont get as much of an impact as these soldiers did. If i do then i will prepare myself. RIP soldiers, and Hooah to your service.

  • I can not believe they actually think they are defending their country dying for nothing in Afghanistan while a few rich are drinking champagne and having a good laugh.

  • @bartiraserginho the Warburtons and Rothschilds are laughing all the way to the bank ( that they own along with america) while people die thinking they're defending their country from some villagers in the desert....

  • enough spamming that website?

  • stonewallboy all i can say in reply to your email is yes you are spot on ,iwont call it ignorance as it was not ment to have sounded like it did to you ,i am a brit and i have 2 mates in the usa so those 2 countries are always at the front bof my mind sorry pal no offence planed,give me a call back maybe we can have a chat on afgany and all the boysand girls out there hope 2 hear from u soon,mr highburyn5

  • What is the big deal with this movie? I watched it and all I saw was Murder Inc. at work. Yes it's sad when young people are killed, but don't these young kid know that the war they are fightiing are nothing but resource wars?

    The people who like this movie should watch "Hearts and Minds". That was another war of lies that killed millions, brought to the youth of America by the same bunch of lying scum bags in Washington.

  • I think I read a book about this. The writer was Sebastian Junger and the name of the book was War. Is this film and the book the same?

  • @onemanjooo Pretty much. The movie's great and the book's great and they mesh well.

  • what a fantastic film and story,really great and sad to watch good luck to all the brits and yanks out there giving there all hoorah

  • @MrHighburyn5 What about all the fucking Aussies, Canadians, New Zealanders and other allied forces? Fuck your ignorance.

  • can somebody tell me what's the song in the movie in the part where they're dancing?

  • @zzAleXb52zz

    I think it was a song by the European artist known as Gunther. I don't know what song it was though.

  • @MGrothendick Remix of "Touch Me" by Samantha Fox.

  • when that dude got killed when they were fighting on the mountain near the end of the movie, that was one of the weirdest feelings i've ever felt while watching a movie/documentary or any film for that matter. I honestly felt like i was right there suited up with them and one of my brothers just died. The way one of his fellow soldiers told that one guy who was crying to just shut up and sit down, you could tell by his expression that he didnt even know how to handle it or tell him. Scary shit

  • @Bbfishman same here actually i know the scene u talkin bout...u'll definately not see that in any hollywood actor gettin paid to read a script...true raw shit caught on film

  • @Bbfishman same here actually i know the scene u talkin bout...u'll definately not see that in any hollywood actor gettin paid to read a script...true raw shit caught on film

  • great documentary

    

  • @kamalapura

    Wow.

  • watched most of the movie and two things came to mind.

    1. the Afghani village sages are obviously unimpressed by the CO's talk, as they've herd that same crap from the soviets.

    2. The American troops are lucky the taliban are underequipped and stupid. Those Hesco baskets are all well and good, but the lack of any kind of a roof leaves the troops vulnerable to mortar fire and even rifle launched grenades, especially the later as they are easier to stealthily launch and then run

  • @MatoVuc They're not fucking stupid. You have to take into account so many different variables. The Taliban know the environment like the back of their hand. They move like ghosts. They are poor and have shit weapons. They give 5 dollars to kids to fire off a clip of sniper rounds on an FOB to bruise morale and make everyone disoriented. If the Taliban were SO stupid why is it that they still manage to kill Americans? The Yanks are stupid for even invading and yeah I said invading.

  • @Stonewallboy i'm certainly not going to argue that point (invasion).

  • Taliban,behind the masks is what u call a documentary

  • These are U.S. army infantry correct?

  • @AsianAssassin117 correct

    

  • 22 people are taliban who saw restrepo!

  • @duncan7599 youre a pussy I wish I can meet you so I can beat the living shit out of you

  • What a bunch of fags. I can kick any one of their asses at CALL OF DUTY on line and I am only 13 but will still show them a thing or two on true smarts and quick response reflex hand control. I wish I could be allowed to fire a real gun to teach these noobs who the real bad ass is.

  • @duncan7599 are you joking? because if you aren't then your a dumbass :P

  • Great movie, makes you understand what those guys go through to defend their country and makes you appreciate life when you see how small things make them happy..respect !!

  • Near the end of the movie there's a man using a large maching that has a spot where you look into it, and I believe one controller on each side of the machine. Does anybody know what that is? I couldn't find anything about it without a name.

  • you are all trolls stop trolling.... it dosent do anything sufficant

  • What kind of IDIOT! disliked this! These people have NO HEARTS! Lets put their dumb fucking ass out there and see if they dislike it.

  • @ThatxStaphyy Well i think they will dislike it as in not like it there lol. But yeah I don't know how you could dislike it

  • Wow. Amazing scene. Beautiful use of montage. And the most beautiful thing I have ever seen at filmsi.co.cc. I say this fully aware that I have just written a post on YouTube that shows my cursory understanding of film philosophy.

  • When that one guy started crying when the Sgt. got killed I just was speechless... :'[

  • Haven't seen this movie yet, but just finished reading WAR by Sebastian Junger. Wow. I have always admired and had the utmost respect for our military, but you never really think or know exactly what those people deal with. I am in awe now. Just to hear what they go through on a daily basis to me is the most humbling thing, and when I think about my problems, well... I really don't have any. I'm just a 43 yr old mother of two and I thank God everyday for these brave soldiers.

  • j'aime le compte rendu, le filmen lui même...ce n'est pas un jeu vidéo, ce n'est pas un film avec des "acteurs", c'est la réalité de la guerre...

    est elle juste ou non??? C'est là un tout autre problème et regard.

  • Lets see CNN show this. This is what really goes on there. God Bless our soldiers.

  • as soon as i saw them hit an ied within the first 10 minutes when i watched the movie, i knew it was going to be epic

  • this movie is great! if you doubt our troops or if you forgot about 9/11 watch this !

  • RIP Tim

  • Spc. Restrepo has now been avenged. If only he had lived to us finally kill the bastard bin Laden.

  • they supposed to fight for freedom>In the other side of the world?

  • May he find peace in the other life.

    RIP Restrepo.

  • OUT ON REDBOX NOW! everyone should watch it. im going to rent it tonight!

  • Bless all the people that have died in middle east.

  • RIP Hetherington

  • RIP tim hetherington (12/5/1970 - 4/20/2011)

  • Comment removed

  • great documentary showing the basic living of a out post...you failed to bring the war to the people...ONSLAUGHT "The CHARKH TANK" will......video from soldiers, not a reported

  • "My only hope is I'm goingto be able to process it differently" I am trully very, very sorry to say. that ain't so. 911 was a false flag attack.

  • Restrepo: A Masterclass in the Effects of Brainwashing.

  • @mirabilo By the way... Judging from the slant in your comments, you have a sour taste for the US involvement in Afghanistan. Might I remind you of Australia's recent deployment of troops there? (if its true that you are from Australia).

  • Tim Hetherington

    1970-4/20/2011

    Rest In Peace

    Hope you got into Valhalla

  • R.I.P Tim Hetherington and Chris Hondros !!! your memory and work will forever live on!!

  • So why exactly are the Americans in Afghanistan? I just don't get it.

  • @mirabilo Taliban. a terrorist organisation who are bombing the whole country into pieces. The navo are going there to maintain the situation / Train afganistan police and trying to remove the treath of taliban activity. Taliban = group of very extrymist muslims who kill people for there extremisch religion.

  • @mirabilo 911 should ring a bell.

  • @mirabilo

    Its a security operation. The Afghan government and NATO forces are trying to contain an insurgency that threatens to destabilize the whole region. Our entry was provoked by the Al Qaeda attacks on September 11, 2001. The Al Qaeda chain of command was being harbored by the Taliban Government of Afghanistan, a militant religious party that had taken control 10 years prior. After dislodging the Taliban, remaining anti-government forces formed an insurgency we fight to this day.

  • El mejor momento de satisfacción profesional le llegó hace muy poco, cuando participó en la ceremonia del Oscar debido a que su película "Restrepo" había sido nominada a una estatuilla como Mejor Documental......

  • R.I:P. Tim, your legacy will live on....

  • I lost alot of fellow brothers in the "Valley of death". God bless them..

  • Rest In Peace braveman!

  • one of the most funniest movie ever made

  • @halloweenfan84 you clearly didnt watch this movie because it is in most parts anything but funny

  • @halloweenfan84 I don't expect anything less coming from a canadian...
