Review of No Man's Land

No Man's Land (I) (2001)
6/10
Good journeyman war satire slightly over-touted with some plotholes.

"No Man's Land" is a satirical representation of the futility of the Bosnian/Serb conflict which uses one incident, a living man in a trench booby-trapped with a land mine, to show how the people involved, from foot soldiers to media to UN peace-keepeers to the chain of command, all fail to succeed when hatreds run deep. In other words, the film shows what a freakin "clusterf**k" the war was. Somewhat over touted, this journeyman flick which wanders in the void between comedy and drama will be most enjoyed by those into war flicks.
