Disrespectful to those who sacrificed

Rating: Null/10 (14 July 2001)

I can't help to think that this movie is anti-American. It tries to paint the Vietnam veterans as stupid and not as the heroes they really are. They fought in the name of freedom; most of us can't say that.
We keep forgetting that the Vietnam war was fought to stop the spread of communism: an ideology that rapes people and their freedom.
It is sad. Many veterans have given everything so that we can enjoy the greatest country in the world, but we want to somehow say that it is not a great country. Where else can you live in such freedom and have so much opportunity?
Go somewhere else and then count your blessings. American is a great country built on many great principles. We have made mistakes, but we are correcting a lot of them -- and I can't say that so much of other countries.
I think this movie leans toward propaganda. I am proud of our Vietnam vets.
The movie is overrated. Though I do enjoy Cruise and Dafoe as actors.
When will our society be revived and realize we live in the best country in the world? I don't buy in to the rubbish Stone spews in this movie.
Hollywood is 99.9% rubbish. Anyone who buys its revisionist history needs to get educated.
