Beautiful and haunting

Rating: Null/10 (11 November 1999)

This has got to be one of the most beautifully photographed films I've ever seen. This film does not follow the standard Hollywood war film formula, and is better off for it. It dares to ask questions about warfare and the human soul deemed banal by audiences and critics alike. This film CANNOT be compared to Saving Private Ryan or any other conventional war movie. It is more on par with Apocalypse Now or Full Metal Jacket. See it! See it! See it!
