Life is too short...

Rating: 1/10 (28 January 1999)

This film takes itself WAY too seriously. I was laughing so hard that it brought tears to my eyes at some points... with redneck ground-pounders quoting philosophy in the voice-over, a nut-case colonel talking about reading Homer in the original Greek while his unit is taking a beating from the Japanese, and everyone generally walking around like they were in some avant-garde performance art piece. Unfortunately, the so-absurd-they're-funny parts are few and far between, so I walked out after about 40 minutes and went into the theater with "Civil Action".
This is the second film I have just plain walked out on - the first was Belushi and Aykroyd in "Neighbors", which was Citizen Kane compared to this movie. Life is too short to waste two hours on this drivel.
