Missed Opportunity

Rating: 6/10 (23 March 2001)

Excellent opening sequence displaying the true horror of war with echoes of Spielbergs "Saving Private Ryan". Unfortunately the film is reduced to a pathetic and miscast love triangle. Joseph Fiennes' character in particular was dreadful! Ed Harris as ever was very good. It's just a shame that what could have been and should have been a really good film fails because of bad casting and a misguided love interest which adds nothing to the film.
