This is an infuriatingly ironic movie. It is a movie about atrocities committed by the soviet union in Afghanistan made by Americans 10 years or so before America started committing atrocities in Afghanistan. It is a movie that mirrors America's state department's stance on the soviet union and either intentionally or unintentionally serves as red scare propaganda for the Americans. It is not well heard of for good reason. Other than that the Tanks are real and the explosions look cool, so 4/5.
