I have no problem with movies that have completely crazy plots in a way I can appreciate them. Things like Sharknado and Snakes on a Plane are not good films but they manage to be decent because they are just so dumb that they manage to be entertaining. If Primitive War had approached things that way this might have been ok but it's just so surprising to me that this is genuinely the real plot and it is meant, for the most part, to be taken seriously. I wouldn't have watched this but Jeremy Piven has a special place in my heart and that is why I gave it a chance. Now that it's in my rearview mirror, I kind of want the 50 or so minutes I wasted on the overall 135 minutes of runtime, back. src At the start of the film I was not really certain if we are meant to take things seriously because since films about the Vietnam war are so many, the inclusion of CCR music playing while helicopters approach a forward-operating base of sorts indicated that this movie could be going either way.
