Excellent

Rating: 10/10 (26 May 2005)

This movie shows all of the horrors of war and the people who survive in it. the movie included many facts in it and many of the conflicts in the book by Richard Hooker. if you see the movie or watch the show you should read the book. The way it laughs at authority and the perils of death and war is amazing. It seems that the nation at that time needed a movie to lift its spirits. They needed a distraction during the times of racial violence and protests and the war involvement in Vietnam. MASH did just that. The movie brought up many many issues in the areas of morality, sexuality, and war. I believe that there will not be another movie like this for ages. It will still effect us the same way in future years. It also brings to light the subject of Korea, whose situation is similar to Vietnam. It brings notability to the soldiers who fought and died in Korea and Vietnam, dieing in order to save the lives of others.
