One of my top ten war movies

Rating: Null/10 (14 April 2012)

This really is an excellent war movie. The battle scenes are great and you feel like you really know some of the characters. The actors are well cast especially Sam Elliot as Sgt. Major Plumley. It is respectful regarding Vietnamese soldiers as well. There are people that will not approve of a Vietnam war movie unless is is packed with anti-war dogma but unless you are one of those you should enjoy this very strong and emotional movie.
One song that plays during the movie is called Sgt. Mackenzie. It is very good but you may not understand some of the lyrics because the singer has a Scottish accent.
