Every scene isMaking no comment for or against the war itself, Thank You For Your Service is a film about the challenges of returning home after. While solidly made all around, its greatest strength by far is the performance of its actors. Every scene is perfectly tuned with so many things going unsaid just in the eyes of each character. Definitely worth a watch and a thought for the woefully insufficient care our troops can receive when they make it back. Expand

Surprisingly moving, well acted and well paced. There was no attempt to manipulate the viewer or push your emotional buttons. It has an authentic feel to it. Teller is really strong.

The film is a true story following the return of 3 men from war & shares their struggles acclimating to civilian life after their service. Sadly they suffer from multiple traumatic issues - PTSD, memory loss, depression, stress & financial troubles resulting in personal problems, and help is not at all quick in coming. Wading through the VA process is terrible & the bureaucracy of the process is appalling!
Not really an entertaining film but a story that needs to be shared. The actors were all good, connected and many times facial expressions talked where words were not necessary. Treatment of returning vets, and their suffering, is really what the story is about. I felt sick watching what we've heard so much about in our own news regarding treatment of our vets these days, and just want to scream! Those in power; politicians, health providers, service administrators, etc. need to do a better job taking care of the men & women who have sacrificed so much fighting for the USA! Many suffer the consequences of their service both physically & mentally daily, it is just wrong, this country HAS to do a better job - shame on those who treat our vets so poorly!

"Thank You for Your Service" is a very disturbing movie to watch, primarily because it accurately depicts the obstacles veterans must overcome in order to get the medical and psychological help they need after they return to the United States"Thank You for Your Service" is a very disturbing movie to watch, primarily because it accurately depicts the obstacles veterans must overcome in order to get the medical and psychological help they need after they return to the United States injured in body, mind, or both. The acting performances are strong, and the script is compelling. The viewer leaves the theater hoping that promised reforms in the corrupt and inefficient Veterans Administration are finally implemented after decades of broken promises from our government. Expand

Lots of people romanticize military service without understanding the struggles that vets go through when returning to civilian life. I'm hoping this film opens people's eyes to how this country does a huge disservice to our military onceLots of people romanticize military service without understanding the struggles that vets go through when returning to civilian life. I'm hoping this film opens people's eyes to how this country does a huge disservice to our military once they're no longer useful to be deployed overseas. Expand

This felt like a real message that was sent to the care system which the veterans are receiving when getting home from war.

And that is what it should have been, based on the books and the real story behind the plot. The actors did a marvelous job delivering the emotions and tension to the screen, and the cinematographic shots are intensifying the experience as well. Shortly to the point this is a very powerful movie with a perfectly executed elements and all aspects overall it's a very good movie with a very good story and message, but lacking some conclusion to their stories.

Se nos muestran de forma realista y depresiva los problemas que pueden afrontar los soldados después de la guerra. ¡TOTALMENTE RECOMENDADA!
