Awesome

Rating: 10/10 (2 June 2003)

Probably Oliver Stone's greatest accomplishment. The extraordinary images behind that lament-like soundtrack made war seem what it really is: dark, unflinching, uncompromising, and lethal. Charlie Sheen played the rich kid who volunteered and Tom Berenger played the man harden by the U.S. biggest embarrassment. This is an absolute classic whose theme and sound will never leave me.
