2.5 out of 10 war is bad
Ciaran from Dublin, 23 Sep 2008
Stop-Loss is a study of the effects of the current warmongering attitude of the US on its own soldiers and their families. The story follows a few soldiers in their final days in Iraq and then after they get home and it's clear the message is that the war is all bad and it is destroying the people directly, and indirectly, involved at ground level. There's nothing new on offer and the pacing can plod but overall it was worth a look.

4.5 out of 10 surprisingly very good
darren from Offaly, 23 Jan 2009
A film that starts with conflict and takes over as a moral dilemma, a good story and based on what young soldiers go through with different stories. For anyone that likes a story of dilemma, an excellent movie

1 out of 10 Meh
Aidan from Dublin, 21 May 2009
Decent story but handled badly, comes across very much like an MTV video, no surprise as MTV were backers of the film. Could have been so much better with a bit of thought

3 out of 10 Worth a watch
Maggie from Mayo, 23 Mar 2009
A good portrayal of the various difficulties young men face when they come home from war. Worth a watch if you enjoy serious films with a message

What's it about....
Back home in Texas after fighting in Iraq, a soldier refuses to return to battle despite the government mandate requiring him to do so.
