Fergus, an elite member of the SAS, returns to his native Liverpool for the funeral of his childhood friend (a fellow private security contractor) who has been killed on Route Irish, the deadly stretch of road between Baghdad Airport and the Green Zone. Refusing to accept the official account of his best friend’s death, Fergus launches his own investigation. Fergus soon draws the heat of those he is investigating and a once dirty foreign war is transferred to the streets of Liverpool and pursued on home turf.

A powerful movie about a dirty war and the psychological changes it imposes on the lives of those directly and indirectly involved. The only real fault I could find was the very broad accents, which you obviously can't edit. It just gave me the willys having to rewind in order to get what was said and in a lot of cases it was crucial to the story. Often, even then it was unintelligible and unfortunately there was no option for subtitles. I can't believe this wasn't up for a handful of awards, it's a blast.

A little slow and a bit hard to follow but worth the wait

good movie, flicks back to the past a bit which was a tad confusing at times but as the story unfolded it got me in and I found it entertaining.

very disappointed with this movie, only managed to sit through 30 minutes of it.
