As long as we recognize Lucas is washed up and most TV sucks, we'll all get along fine.

Yay Netflix!

A Netflix Original with a lot of folks you'll recognize, but not place.

This takes place in a former Soviet block country. The U.S. is there fighting insurgents when both sides encounter a new threat.

Basically, ghosts who are untouchable by traditional weapons. Thankfully, the U.S. brought along a genius who can build new weapons in the field.

Not a bad Sci Fi movie. The story is what it is, and I'm sure there's some anti-war, human nature is to destroy itself message in there, but they don't get too heavy handed with it.

Decent effects, direction, acting, etc. The worst parts are some bad tactical decisions, and the cliche "Pull your men out" scene.

If you watch it, you won't hate it. If you skip it, you missed nothing.
