A great film about the effects of war on the human soul...score: 9 (out of 10)

Rating: Null/10 (13 December 1998)

Michael Cimino paints a portrait of Pennsylvania steel workers and the effects of the Vietnam War on them. Robert de Niro, Meryl Streep, and Christopher Walken (Best-supporting Oscar winner) give a strong performances. The Vietnam sequences are beautifully filmed. The Russian roulette scenes are the most horrifying parts of the movie.
