Classic and unforgettable

Rating: 10/10 (22 July 2000)

An hour into this movie at the cinema my wife was shuffling about in boredom and a lady at the end of the row was fast asleep.Ok,its not a woman's film.I sat there in awe at the most beautifully filmed movie ive ever seen,better than Lawrence of Arabia.The action when it comes is awesome ,just watch those Yanks taking out the Jap bunkers,its ruined all my John Wayne war movies!The soundtrack is superb ,the music that accompanies the bayonet charge through the village is the most haunting since Platoon.Fantastic ,a classic and unforgettable.
