- thomasrogers75325 January 2026Top 10 craziest crashouts I’ve seen in a minute I can’t lie, crazy movie
- SoranIsOn27 February 2025Zzzzzzzzzz. I had enough depressed Peter Parker in spidey 3. Pass. Jake doesn't even make it watchable.
- Jayster17 January 2026Saw the crash out clip on X/Twitter and thanks to Grok I discovered and really enjoyed this movie. Shoutout to all of heroes out there, thank you for your service!
- Jakeys28 December 2025Tobey Maguire gives a really powerful performance, but I can't help but feel like he was a bit miscast for some reason. I could see Jake Gyllenhaal in either brother's role, but Tobey doesn't seem right as a marine. Maybe I'm typecasting him. Otherwise, Natalie Portman was great as always and the story was mostly sound. I only have one major criticism of the story I noticed while watching, which is that every single time Sam asks Tommy if he and Grace slept together, Tommy refuses to answer, as if he has something to hide. Who does that? They didn't, ffs, just say no!
- bkwiles1 December 2025Decent acting. Tobey McGuire doesn't sell me with his desperation. The movie could have been darker. The ending was really bland and too happy for the story.
