Those 3 were really apparent to me and I've never served.
Taking up the same sniper position and basically playing 'I hope I hit him before he hits me' is the stupidest tactic I've ever heard of.
A 3rd rate director should have been able to see the stupidity in that scene.
The split up is straight out of the Hollywood playbook on how to make a movie more interesting. Pretty stupid too. No way in hell a 3 man team goes off alone after someone let alone splitting up in an unknown neighborhood. They would almost certainly stay together, and almost certainly call for backup.
The whole movie reeked of the movie makers trying to portray the 'cowboy' in the military. The fact that they decided to do with by using the EOD is hilarious. You're just talking about one the most professional units in the military ESPECIALLY with discipline.
Laughable at best.
