Anti-American/Military Propaganda

Rating: 1/10 (17 November 2005)

This is a most disappointing movie, IMHO. I went to it with an open mind and thinking it would be have profanity but to see the American military depicted as uncaring and unsensitized men was beyond the pale. If the producer/directors had a goal to make women tell their men to ~not join the Marines~ they would succeed in lowering the draft rate. If the produces/directors had the goal to make young men decide against a career in the Marines, they would also succeed. There was the expected profanity but the Military that I am proud of: those brave men and women who have liberated Iraq and secured freedom for Afghanistan (and who so bravely protect and defend our own freedoms at home and abroad), movies should show them At Their Best and not try to lower their morale. WE ARE AT WAR and this war against terrorism will probably last a generation; methinks the quicker America faces up to this fact the better; it's a war between good and evil and I'm grateful for the ~most part~ it's being fought in a far-away land and not in the streets and cities of America.....yet; let's PRAY we have the steel backbone of the American public; the terrorists know they cannot win against our military but they do know if they are patient that perhaps they can destroy the will of the ~folks back home.~
