Sprawling, epic, and thoroughly enjoyable war film

Rating: 10/10 (17 September 2014)

This film is has the greatest performances off all time. The all star cast include Martin Sheen, Marlon Brando, Lawrence Fishburne, Robert Duvall, and Harrison Ford.
The film looks phenomenal, and the camera work, is Kubrick level of refined, I especially like the camera-work in the siege of a small north Vietnamese town while ride of the Valkyries is playing.
The story gets less important as the film goes on, and there is increasingly less action, rather focusing on the characters, which is for the better. To top this off, the ending is ambiguous and perfect. You should definitely watch this film.
