We were soldiers!

Rating: Null/10 (21 April 2002)

This film was very poor quality. Alright, this was a true story, but: As usual if made in America, this film was just patriotic and nothing else!
There were far more than 1000 people killed - and just 80 were Americans. Sure, every life counts, but when the film is over you have the chance to read the name of the K.I.A.s - just 80 names. This film is the document not just about the cruel war there, it's a document about the crime committed against all the Viet Cong! There you see Napalm dropped over the Vietcong, but what they show afterwards are the corps of one or two Americans, suffering from friendly fire. But nothing about the cruelties against the enemy!
This film is once more a very precise indice about the crimes committed by the American soldiers - like a déjà vue, is it now nowadays in Israel, some months ago in Afghanistan, a little longer ago in Iraq or during the late 60ies, early 70ies in Viet Nam. Very good that such a country has lost this war!
BTW, taken from the military sight: All the Americans would have died with in 2 hours!
