Response to The Deer Hunter

Rating: 10/10 (14 December 2007)

I really liked the film. At first I was skeptical as to whether or not I would think the film was interesting and could get into it, but I soon became attached to the characters and interested into what would happen next. The Deer Hunter really summed up Post Traumatic Stress Disorder and the effect it can have even on those who aren't suffering from it. The movie did a good job of making the character's story realistic. I had never seen Robert Dinero in any of his earlier films and really enjoyed seeing some of his early work. I could never appreciate his true talent of being serious and having an impact on others. I would definitely recommend this film not only to those who love war films, but anyone at all. It's now a favorite of mine. I now own a copy.
