Whiskey Tango Foxtrot

In 2002, cable news producer Kim Barker decides to shake up her routine by taking a daring new assignment in Kabul, Afghanistan. Dislodged from her comfortable American lifestyle, Barker finds herself in the middle of an out-of-control war zone. Luckily, she meets Tanya Vanderpoel, a fellow journalist who takes the shell-shocked reporter under her wing. Amid the militants, warlords and nighttime partying, Barker discovers the key to becoming a successful correspondent.

What a great movie. Loved it! If it wasn't Tina Fey on that cover I probably wouldn't search this out. But I'm really really glad I did. Also a lot of familiar faces in here...including Sterling K Brown, aka Johnnie Cochran on the FX OJ show! He's good but only in it for a few min.

Pretty good movie. It's mainly a drama with comedy sprinkled throughout. Worth a watch.

It starts as a mess. The character is a confused middle aged woman in a personal crisis who has no idea of what she's doing and therefore, until she figures it out, we just get to watch her stumbling along. Eventually though, Kim snaps out of it, and finds her place and passion. From then on, the movie improves, and becomes totally worth watching. As stated by others, this isn't a comedy, but it isn't a typical war drama either. I'm not entirely sure I like the light-hearted tone given to the story, but there were some excellent sensitive moments. and the ending was quite satisfying.

Must better than I thought it was going to be. Kept me entertained with the war drama and the splash of happy moments thrown in.

I liked this more than I thought I would. I hadn't watched it because I'm not a huge comedy genre person and don't necessarily enjoy Tina Fey as a comedienne but this isn't a comedy. There's not a lot funny in this movie. I guess there are comedic moments as there are in life but this is not a comedy. Gives me new respect for Tina Fey. I won't purposely avoid her next film.

The first half really feels like Liz Lemon having a career change.

Tina Fey in a not-comedy, marketed as a comedy. Odd tactic, but it’s still quite good. The cast is top tier, and tone hits a nice spot. Not my favorite thing by any of the actors, but a worthwhile addition to all of their catalogs.

Rating: 3/5 - 7.5/10 - Worth Watching

managed to stay a light drama despite the war stories thanks to Tina Fey and Martin Freeman
