A Brit touting American jingoism, while dissing it's false promises. 2 heroes for the price of one! The action is pulsating but the plot is predictable. Good guys win, bad guys lose. The message is clear American promises falter when bureaucracy runs the show, so action rules. Dar Salim (playing the Afghani) gets little to do beyond act heroic but the point (that the Afghani translators helped us) is hammered home to the hilt. Of course we should help out a super hero! What about the thousands who didn't have to be super heroes to be good allies?
It's good propaganda for a good cause. Honor our word.
