Saw this today at the theater. Very well done war movie. Surprised they're making war movies about events during my childhood, but I suppose that happens to everyone.
I initially had a hard time seeing Mitch Nelson, the main character as portrayed by Chris Hemsworth, as not Chris Hemsworth. It eventually faded, though, and he has a good American accent which only slips a bit.

A quick Wiki check shows 12_Strong, which is sub-titled "The Declassified True Story of the Horse Soldiers" suggests it is.
