Powerful, moving, heartbreaking

Rating: Null/10 (5 October 2002)

The movie, "We Were Soldiers" shows one of the most moving stories of Vietnam. Mel Gibson is supported by a very strong cast (who all died) which only made the movie even better. It makes you realize just how awful the war was and how brutal people are. You were able to see the war without the hype of the media or political opinions, which allowed you to develop your own. They defended our natural rights to the death and didn't receive the reward of support from their country that they deserved. These men fought for the thing we take most for granted, freedom. I had always said that I would proudly fight for my country and my rights, after seeing this movie I have no doubt that I would. Although it may be a very touchy subject, this movie makes you proud to be an American.
