You wouldn't believe me if I told you...

Rating: 10/10 (26 September 2007)

It is indeed an extreme masterpiece portrayal of 'Vietnam' and its impact. I mean there is 'Apocalypse Now' with an extreme "HORROR", there is a Born on the 4th of July with it's Tom Cruise magic, Platoon, Hearts and Minds, uh...Thin Red Line...etc. Those are all brilliant, but I have a feeling particularly for this one. Half of the film is happy moments in the wedding and deer hunting session, the other half is the Russian roulette bloodbath scenes. This is an extreme heart-braking drama that blends in with a very critical action sequences. And trust me...you won't believe Chris Walken and Rob De Niro in their roles. Apocalypse Now show you the abstract visual of 'The Horror'. But this is the real deal. You now see what Brando sees in Apocalypse Now. And in this film, you will understand 'The Horror'.
Extreme "Nam" movie with an extreme of everything. 50 out of 10.
