Small Town Soldiers

Rating: 7/10 (6 July 2019)

Movies about war are tragic no matter how they're told. This one is about three friends from an industrial town in Pennsylvania that joined the Vietnam war. The damage it did to them in one form or another was irreparable
This war movie was no less tragic than any other but it was more lengthy. At three hours, this was a long film especially when you consider the first 45 minutes were spent on a wedding. Yes, it established the relationships, the personalities, and the culture of the small town but it was also too long. I liked the movie in all its tragedy even if I didn't like the length of it.
