Great movie

Rating: 10/10 (18 October 2006)

The reviewer above is exactly right, about the movie and why DeNiro is who he is in the movie business. However, he was wrong on one minor point of trivia about the movie. The wedding was for John Savage's character, who was one of the three that went to Vietnam, one of the two who came home, well most of him came home. My father is Vietnam vet, and no matter how much he enjoys DeNiro, he refuses to see the movie. "I was there, no need to see how it was, or to remember details that I thank God I forgot," He told me when I would encourage him to watch the movie with me. I wonder how much this movie relates to how troops coming home today, feel about the Iraq war.
