    ★★★½

    Doesn't go too deep on any one issue, but is a great primer for the variety of issues faced by the people of Melanesia.

    Being pissed and getting in your car, only to have to get out of the car to de-ice is such a mood, though. Fuck that ice

    This review may contain spoilers. I can handle the truth.

    There's a lot that can be said about the conversation this movie was having with the world when it came out, and how it is more relevant today, but the past five years or so have just made the idea that the commander gave the order to stand down and it was completely followed unbelievable.

    Enjoyable little doc

    It's very clear they wanted to use a specific story as the frame of the narrative, but it results in a very choppy feel, especially towards the end when there's a beat that feels like it should be the closer, but isn't.

    It also has a unfortunately pro-military slant. Inclusion of the military would be unavoidable due to the history of aviation, and women in aviation, but the angle felt a little too propaganda at times for me.
