In the shadowy world of drone warfare, combat unfolds like a video game–only with real lives at stake. After six tours of duty, Air Force pilot Tom Egan now fights the Taliban from an air-conditioned bunker in the Nevada desert. But as he yearns to get back in the cockpit of a real plane and becomes increasingly troubled by the collateral damage he causes each time he pushes a button, Egan’s nerves—and his relationship with his wife—begin to unravel.

Good Kill is a 2015 drama-thriller that explores the moral complexities of drone warfare through the eyes of an Air Force pilot operating from a Nevada bunker. Starring Ethan Hawke, the film examines the psychological toll of remote combat as the protagonist struggles with the disconnect between the clinical nature of drone strikes and their devastating real-world consequences. Now available to stream, it offers a grounded look at modern warfare and its human cost.
