Gripping

Rating: 10/10 (28 August 2000)

The Deer Hunter is one of the most compelling and dramatic pictures I've ever seen. How it truthfully depicts how the effects of war can change the lives of normal people completely and forever is amazing. The russian roulette scenes are the hardest to watch. Christopher Walken delivers a dynamite performance that more than warranted him the Oscar. This is a great film. (9.9 out of 10)
