Nuts

Rating: 6/10 (10 December 2012)

This film was, in a word, NUTS...I don't even know where to begin describing my thoughts on this film. I got the fact that it was about the chaos of war, and how it can have a really crazy destructive affect on your mind. In a way I appreciated how it gave you a realistic view of what it is like to be a soldier in war. I feel as though it just got crazier and crazier toward the end and went on this weird path that totally left the whole first hour and a half of the movie. I didn't like how it dragged you through all kinds of crap just to leave you hanging with all kinds of questions unanswered. I won't even get started about the stupid buffalo or the dog. I thought there was a lot of great lighting affects and camera work that really made the film quite remarkable, however I wouldn't consider this a film that you can't go through life without seeing. Wasn't crazy about it, really wouldn't recommend it unless you're interested in crazy weird war films such as this. There were moments where I had to pause it and take a break because there was just SO much crap going on. Really intense film, but I appreciated the few deep aspects about it.
