646f9e108c With the continuing fight in war torn Afghanistan, two US Soldier friends Gonzalez and Regan face a new threat each day in the most dangerous land in the world. During an operation to extricate insurgents from a civilian town, Regan makes a crucial knee jerk reaction that will change the dynamics of the two friends relationship forever. Now faced with a dilemma of morality in men, Gonzalez confronts his close friend and his own worse fears. I caught this film a few of times, most recently at a shorts festival and it captivates me entirely every time I watch it. "Reactionary" brings the viewer through the various complex emotions of soldiers at war. It explores not only their relationship to war itself, but those within, amongst each other,humans - humans with morals, humans who err. This short film is a MUST SEE. Beautifully shot, the actors completely conquer their roles and do much justice to the very realistic storyline. The right amount of emotional intensity holds a vital presence, engulfing those into a thought provoking mist of revelation! Kudos! This director, Gary Hubb, will certainly go far with his future films! Cheers! Rock On!
