Is Boots on the Ground Worth Watching?
Boots on the Ground is a film full of ideas that don’t always line up. I liked a few things about it, but the flaws start to pile up quite quickly. But Louis Melville clearly has a knack for creating mood and tension, even if the story stumbles. Boots on the Ground was an interesting experiment, but not something that will stick with you for long.   [Read the full review]

Found Footage Critic

Excerpt: “Boots on the Ground” is a film that...centers on a group of British soldiers torn apart by greed and demonic forces as they try to survive the last night of the Afghan War. The plot of Boots on the Ground isn’t anything new or revolutionary, but Melville makes the most of it. Overall, [even] a few errors and inconsistencies...aren’t enough to truly sour what is generally a suspenseful, enjoyable watch."
Overall Score: 6.7 / 10   [Read the full review]
