Worst Movie of the Year so far

Rating: 1/10 (4 March 2002)

I was hoping that this movie would deliver the goods. All it delivered was corny and sappy. I mean, was Mel Gibson drunk when he decided to take part in this pile of tripe? Nobody has used the phrase "Tell my Wife I loved her" (like that Chinese Man) than Hollywood. If I hear that dang line one more time, I will throw up!! What's the deal with Sam Houson? Everytime somebody said good morning to him, he'd just say "What the hell do you know about good morning." THAT made me IRATE! And what about how Mel Gibson too a CAB to his house!! He couldn't just call his WIFE ahead of time and LET HER KNOW!? She could have given him a RIDE! That was way off base. Mel Gibson prayed TOO MUCH! What's worse, is that his prayers were supposedly from the top of his head, yet the sounded as if they WERE FROM A BOOK!!! This movie totally rips off THE GREEN BERETS with John Wayne. There are too many sappy lines and the wife, family, meaning of war theme is overused. If you want to see this, trust me, DON'T!!! See The Green Berets or Hamburger Hill. Those are REAL war movies!!
