6 stars, and I am being kind now, because it starts out okay, but it lasts a bit too long, becoming a bit tedious near the end...

Rating: 6/10 (27 May 2020)

I love many Clint Eastwood movies AND the cool, calm and collected characters that play in them. This is regular Eastwood stuff: a tough drill sergeant has to drill a platoon of amateur soldiers. The first bit (the drilling) is actually fun. The movie later on never becomes really bad, but it simply lasts too long and is lacking punch. The second half of the movie is more simple combat in a war zone and I found that to be a bit boring.
