Another 80's Classic!

Rating: 9/10 (17 July 2010)

I think the 1980's was a good time for movies. That's the decade when action and war movies gained popularity. Just look at Die Hard, Lethal Weapon, Rambo, and now this. This is the best war movie of the decade no doubt about it. According to my father, this movie depicts the Vietman War in a very accurate way.
The Vietnam War is described through the eyes of a young soldier. he explains all the terrible things that happened. He also talks about his two sergeants and how the evil one started a village massacre.
The acting is very good. This movie introduces the famous Two And a Half Men star, Charlie Sheen. I was really surprised to see the amazing Johnny Depp.
Overall, this is a powerful war movie. This picture definitely deserved the Best Picture Oscar. I rate this film 9/10.
