3 hours I could have spent sleeping

Rating: 1/10 (1 March 1999)

It's not often that both myself and my girlfriend agree on how good or bad a movie is, but in the case of the Thin Red Line we both drew the same conclusion - Never Again!
If you were hoping for a Pacific version of Saving Private Ryan, don't go along to this as you will be disappointed. Somehow this movie even manages to to make a joke out of the time honored tradition of cameos as well....many big name characters join the movie and leave again without really having left an impression. Meanwhile the dirty business is left to a small group of lesser known (but certainly not lesser talented actors).
All in all, it's a war movie that focuses on internal conflicts instead of the business at hand.
