Surprisingly good

Rating: 8/10 (25 November 2000)

Being of the generation which lost many friends to the war in Vietnam, I am not particularly fond of war films. Actually I rarely see one. I was quite impressed with this film since it covered so many important points regarding conduct and honor. No surprise that the pols were evil. I was impressed with the fellow who played Biggs but the voice is very evocative of someone else from long ago and I spent much of the movie trying to place it.
