Apocalypse not for another 3 1/2hrs...

Rating: Null/10 (6 May 2003)

I've never been in a war but I can understand what it's like for a soldier or anyone when traveling to an unusual world, unprepared of what lies ahead. Like a wild rollercoaster, at times the ride will be calm, then all of a sudden scary, then calm again, and so forth. Maybe that explains why audiences are forced to watch a 3 1/2hr film, because they want the viewers to go completely bonkers just like the characters in the movie who are at war. I realize that this movie has nothing to do with the Vietnam war, that the war is simply a backdrop to the madness within ourselves.

I didn't really care for this film because it's too long, long dialogue, and most of the time drags. 6/10
