Above Average movie and pretty good.

Rating: 7/10 (26 November 2005)

Jarhead was pretty good. The sound seemed a bit off to me but that may have just been our theater. Anyway, I loved all of the actors that were in the film. The acting was great. It was comical and intense at times. The movie didn't seem to go anywhere but I think that may have been the point since it was such a short 'war'. Definitely a story worth telling. It's not a war movie like Full Metal Jacket, no really complicated characters, and not a lot of blood. I liked the way it was shot, nothing hokey or ground breaking that I noticed. Go see it, you may like it. If you don't see it at the theater you should definitely rent it when it comes out.
