No Man's Land

***  A Very Good Movie if you're at all interested in a different perspective of the Bosnian-Serbian war.  Two soldiers get caught in the middle trenches of a war zone, one Bosnian and one Serbian.  Of Course they at first want to kill each other, but then they begin to realize they have to work together in order to survive.  I believe at one point they actually think that day have a lot in common and if the war was not going on they could possibly be friends. The incompetence of the UN peacekeeping force is shown as well as the hawkish attitude of the press.  Unfortunately the movie ends with the truthful statement that war is a very nasty thing and totally without merit.  The Film left me feeling sad that these types of things occur in our world, but I guess if it had a Disney like ending I would not have liked it as much. Recommended.
