The film, directed by Mike Nichols, is a "melancholy that is attached to every laugh," moving from biting military satire to a "dehumanizing reality". Unlike typical war movies, it avoids being "boorish anti-war" and instead targets "stupidity, corp-speak, and circular thinking".
Critics note the film starts with "absurdly funny reasons" but eventually switches to a "dark and almost surreal examination of the effects of war".
The 4K transfer highlights David Watkin’s "outstanding cinematography," particularly the "hot burnt-out look" achieved by shooting at precisely 2:45 PM to capture a tangible, scorching heat haze.
