Camp X-Ray
2014 · 1h 57m · Drama
Camp X-Ray is a morally complicated drama that deserves your time—it's a rare film willing to humanize both sides of an impossible situation. The solid RT score (74%) signals this is worthwhile character-driven cinema, even if it's not a crowd-pleaser. Watch it if you want something thoughtful that'll stick with you longer than typical dramas.
Plot
A young woman joins the military to be part of something bigger than herself and her small-town roots. Instead, she ends up as a new guard at Guantanamo Bay, where her mission is far from black and white. Surrounded by hostile jihadists and aggressive squadmates, she strikes up an unusual friendship with one of the detainees.
