Emotive, exciting and elaborate!

Rating: 9/10 (8 March 2008)

This film encapsulates the brilliance of movie making.
All too often this film is knocked down on account of it's poor historical accuracy! I myself follow an ethic on films that we, the viewer, watch movies merely to be entertained, and maybe in the given mood look for some emotional impact. "We Were Soldiers" has not only thrilling visuals, but incredible sentimental value with the impact of the futility of war, and it's effects on the home front.
This film is incredibly well rounded and essentially has a epic soundtrack. Obviously this film has effected me more than it can be expected to affect others, but the mere fact that i feel compelled to proclaim my sound enjoyment of it is credit to how good this film really is.
I hope this is useful for those debating whether or not this film's worth a watch! In my opinion it is, again and again.
