pretty good war film

Rating: 10/10 (26 August 2009)

this film is good it just didn't have the effect of other war films I've seen. Oliver Stone just cant capture it good enough in my eyes. i see this film is brilliant from other opinions I've heard, i'm just sorry i don't feel the same. i have rated it six because it is still a good film that had me kinda intrigued.
winning 4 Oscars is a little extreme i think but maybe there wasn't other amazing films out that year. to win one or two id be satisfied but to win 4 is very surprising.
the acting was good in this. with stars such as Charlie Sheen, Willem Defoe, Tom Berenger, Keith David and even a small appearance by new comer at the time Johnny Depp.
in a nutshell this is a good war film but lacks on what other war classics give. this should be watch by all just for its intense drama through out........ 6/10.........j.d Seaton
