Lost on me

Rating: 5/10 (19 July 1999)

This is one of those movies where while watching it, I have to wonder if there's something I just don't get. To me this movie was long winded and boring. There were interesting observations to be made about men's behaviour in war for sure, but certainly there are better ways to show that than this movie.
Also this movie makes a big mistake that has been made before. Casting big named actors in small roles. To me that's just stupid. It brings more attention than is due to a small part. They didn't just commit that mistake once either, this movie is full of them! Clooney of course being the worst. What did he have two sentences?
Overall, this almost three hour movie was painful to watch, it just couldn't keep me interested.
