A Reconciliation

Rating: 8/10 (10 November 2004)

I think, initially, that "Platoon" became to a sociological phenomenon, unintentionally. I don't know whether the American nation was just mature for a reconciliation with the veterans of Vietnam, who were neglected and reviled by society after they returned, or it was just an excellent film, that brought the people out of their shells and the ice to melt. I am not sure about that and it is not from importance. What is important is that "Platoon" brought a reconciliation between America's veterans of Vietnam, their families who didn't know anything about their experiences of war and the opponents of the Vietnam war.
Regarding this movie, it is outstanding in its intention and in its making of. I think I don't have to say more about it.
