personal opinion of Jarhead

Rating: Null/10 (28 November 2005)

Ladies and gents, I saw the movie very recently and as a Viet Nam era Marine I was particularly disgusted and had alternating feelings between going home and burning everything I had that referred to our Corps or just getting up and asking for my money back (which is what I ended up doing). None of us are perfect but if the portrayal of the Marines in this picture is accurate; we should get together, disband the current USMC and disperse the men and women to the appropriately tasked "other armed forces" and let our Marine Corps fade into history. We always had the "ten per-centers" that bitched and moaned about everything and didn't hold their end but to glorify the crap I saw on the screen in "Jarhead" this month - bull! RascalOne '72
