Let's be honest, people. This movie is not near what its reputation would lead you to believe

Rating: 3/10 (20 April 2000)

This movie was a disappointment from start to finish. The only part of the movie worth watching was the 15 minutes actually spent in Viet Nam. DeNiro and Walken are fine actors. They are not to blame for my opinion of the film. They simply were the victims of a very thin plot based upon, of all things, "Russian Roulette". I feel that I need not expound on this further. If I were to continue this review any further, you might feel as though you were watching the 30 minute wedding reception contained within the movie. For heaven's sake, the tape of my wife and my wedding does not contain this much reception footage.
Please spare yourself the 3 hours and 3 minutes if you have not yet seen this picture. Spend the time with your children. Heck, spend the time on the internet, it will stand less chance of disappointing you.
