A truly amazing, moving, powerful war movie.

Rating: 8/10 (10 March 2002)

I have just got back from seeing "We Were Soldiers" and I have to say, this is the best movie based on Vietnam. I finally convinced my father to take me because me, being under 18, had to get anyone to. But this movie truly made me think, it made me think like how I thought after I saw "Platoon". The effects in this movie were great, the direction was fairly descent but then again, it was very good, kind of both ways. The acting in this movie was suberb, everyone played their roles perfect and very well casted. The war action in this movie I loved, some of the best of the best, probably since "Saving Private Ryan". This movie is very engrossing as well, it was 2 1/2 Hours very well spent, it only seemed like an hour went by. I truly loved and enjoyed this film. I would strongly reccommend it to any movie goer. 9.5/10.
