Rating: 9/10 (11 December 2013)

great acting, based on a true story, no nonsense straight to the point and lots of action. Mel Gibson plays real life war hero Col.Moore in the war against Vietnam and it displays one major battle. The real time movie is about 3 days total. The combat is very graphical and about as close to feeling real as movie can get, which is quite good. The acting is sincere especially by Gibson and his character looked just as heroic as his real life character who in reality has about 20 war medals. My favorite scene is Gibson showing his acting chops at the end and saying "why did my men have to die, and im still alive"? Spoken like a true hero, go watch this especially if your a military member or history junkie. In my opinion, it's better than black hawk down, just because the elements are more accurate to certain events.
