worth another look

Rating: 3/10 (7 December 2007)

Everyone seems to have an affinity for this film. Maybe I prejudged it and did not go in with an open, or even a slanted mind. I look at the background images on the screen as much as I look at the main characters in the foreground. The cinema was impressive as well as the timing from scene to scene. Maybe, just maybe, I missed something important in this film, prompting me to give it a negative critique. However, I will never change my opinion of the impossible story line. Clearly it is just Hollywood. Joaquin Phoenix was great as always and the military uniforms and other garb of the era were well done. Thanks, people. I will view the movie again........
