Needs to be seen

Rating: Null/10 (26 June 2002)

Part of the reason I go to the movies, is to see which movies, generally ignored by the public, will catch my attention. Joel Schumacher's "Tigerland" is indeed such a film.
With a bravura debut by Irish actor Colin Farrell, Farrell plays Pvt. Bozz, a troublemaking soldier who has a method to his madness. Set in 1971, during the outset of the Vietnam war, he proposes by example to lead men to think for themselves, rather than obey a system that slaughters them.
Vastly ignored, "Tigerland", is a solid drama, packed with power and raw emotion. Proof that the ignored, are usually the best
Grade: B+
