This film gives viewers a very clear glimpse at some of the predicaments the U.S. has put its servicemen into, as well as Afghan locals, during its war in Afghanistan. "Hell and Back Again" focuses on the struggles of one particular U.S. Marine; however the segments filmed in Afghanistan during the 2009 U.S./British offensives into Helmand province successfully show the chaos, confusion and tragedy of war from the perspective of the combatants. As well, the segments that follow the particular Marine gives viewers an interesting perspective of potential psychological effects people who have been in, and scarred by, combat face.
