Best War Film Ever Made

Rating: 10/10 (11 December 1999)

Quite simply brilliant.
How awards for this film have passed it by is quite beyond me, a truly excellent war film that easily stands head and shoulders above Saving Private Ryan.
The acting of all the major principles was excellent particularly Sean Penn and Nick Nolte, it seemed that every scene revealed a new face from John Travolta to George Clooney through John Cusack and John Savage to Woody Harrelson.
The last war movie of the millenium and simply one that can be used to define war in past 1000 years. Truly Brilliant. See This Film. *****
