An underappriciated and underrated Oliver Stone classic

Rating: Null/10 (18 November 2002)

This movie could be the most powerful movie ever made, quite possibly Stone's best. It didn't get the same critical praise as Stone's other Vietnam movie "Platoon"(1986), but it should have ,because it's much more interesting and deals much more with it's characters. Tom Cruise gives his best performance in this as well. This is the only movie that I ever thought he did an excellent acting job in. It has a great cast too that includes:
Raymond J. Barry(Falling Down), several cameo appearances: Tom Berenger (Platoon), William Dafoe(Platoon), William Baldwin(Flatliners), John Getz(The Fly, Blood Simple), and Mike Starr(Frenchy from Goodfellas, Mental from Dumb and Dumber). Overall a great film. 10 out of 10
