A Savage Moving Movie

Rating: 9/10 (26 February 2008)

Whoa! Vietnam must have been one hell of a hell-hole back during the Nam War and this is one disturbing view of it. Charlie Sheen, Willem Dafoe, Tom Berenger even Johnny Depp is in this and all put in good performances. This isn't really a kids movie at all. Harrowing, Disturbing, Savage, Brutal, Violent, Gruesome, Mortifying and Moving are just some words to describe this but it's brilliant too. I was upset when Elias (Dafoe) died. Will Dafoe is a great actor and everybody is good here. Berenger is brutal and Sheen plays the perfect character for the role. An untainted soul that slowly corrupts during the awfulness of Nam. Still the best Vietnam Movie I've seen and definitely one of the best in the war genre overall.
9/10
