From the Academy Award-winning director of American Beauty.
Jarhead is a powerful story, told with painful honesty and irreverence, with spectacular cinematography.
Jarhead follows 'Swoff' (Gylenhaal) from a sobering stint in boot camp to active duty, sporting a sniper's rifle through Middle East deserts with no cover from intolerable heat or from Iraqi soldiers. Swoff and his fellow marines, who have been trained to kill, find themselves in a brutal situation, fighting a war they don't understand for a cause they don't fully grasp.
