Not what I expected

Rating: 2/10 (6 November 2005)

This movie was more hoopla than anything else. It shouldn't even make it in the top 10 military movies. Definitely not what I expected, extremely disappointed. Their message would have been better explained in a documentary not a movie. I have to watch Platoon now so I can calm my disappointment. Should have waited for the reviews first before spending my hard earned money. Actors were not at fault since they did perform well. Maybe it was the material or the book was just not meant to be made into a movie. Marketing the film was a success but I will most certainly be warning all my friends not to go see it. All the time I was waiting for something big to happen. It was made for TV.
