Loosely based on the real life of Bout is an understatement. He was not born and never lived in the US. He was Russian selling arms. Just like we have people in the US who sell arms to the side we want to win. It’s an okay fictional movie that no way resembles the real life of Bout. This is typical of Hollywood to change the story to fit their idea of what is right and wrong. The real story of Bout would have been more interesting.
