Good but bad

Rating: 6/10 (14 June 2020)

This feels like a film that has only been released due to recent events. A film that possibly wasn't good enough to get a release but as the timings right Netflix have picked it up. It would not surprise me if all the cut scenes and history lessons clumsily interwoven throughout the film were added after the film has been finished, just as a response to what has been happening in these last couple of weeks. Non of it really even fitted in with the rest of the film. If it had just been a film about old war friends going back to Vietnam to find gold it would of been a lot better movie. At some points in the film the tone just didn't feel right, there were parts that felt like it was a comedy almost. The score was poor aswell I thought, just didn't fit with the particular scene some of it. The cast were good and I'm not saying it was terrible but it honestly did feel like the film was just a backdrop for a properganda
