OUTSTANDING COURAGEOUS WAR MOVIE

Rating: 10/10 (29 December 2001)

Well Done, Oliver Stone.
With this movie you proved that you're one of the greatest US directors. Ever.
A lot of credit goes here to Cruise too, though we must not forget others. They all did excellent job and really show us who don't live in the States, the stupidity of Vietnam war and the courage of Vietnam vets, who suffered and were so humiliated after their return to their "so called" democratic country. It takes a lot of courage to be Ron Kovic. But it takes even more courage to make a movie, which puts on test your country.

This movie has also something what other's don't. A superb music theme, which makes it even more emotional.
Once again the Stone showed us all, that US is far away by being "the greatest country in the world". It just a country like any other. With its corrupted politics who makes mistakes and some great people, who are courageous enough to fight against the system (remember JFK).
All in all, this movie has opened my eyes when i first saw it at 13. And now, after i have seen it again, it still shocks me.
Deserved 10 out of 10.
