SGT. Will Gardner
It seems that more blood and bloody wars have transformed the life of that fighter called Will Gardner. Gardner suffered from brain injuries during a bombing operation during the fighting, which led him to enter many surgeries, after which it was difficult to integrate with his community. So, after a series of tragedies and setbacks he decided to go on a motorcycle trip all over America to pick up pieces of his life lost since the fighting.

[Martini's] filmmaking instincts... prove too self-indulgent and heavy-handed to tell the kind of emotionally involving tale about post-traumatic stress disorder among returning soldiers that he clearly had in mind.

Heavy-handed clichés overwhelm the heartfelt intentions of this drama meant to salute veterans battling physical and emotional wounds as they return home.

Sincerity of purpose, the best of intentions and brief appearances by top talent cannot save a real first pancake of a script in SGT. Will Gardner.
