Boring, monotonous, strained acting

Rating: 3/10 (4 July 1999)

Comments elsewhere have labeled this movie as "brilliant", "in the top ten of war movies." I must respectfully disagree. It was a run-of-the-mill anti-war movie, glorifying those who disobeyed orders and demonizing those who gave the orders. The narrative detracted from the movie and the movie needed all the help it could get. Nick Nolte was not the man for this role. I am glad I didn't pay a premium price at the theater to watch this turkey.
