Good, but its been done to death

Rating: 5/10 (27 April 2002)

This movie is good. It is based on a true event. However, I really don't understand why they would want to produce another war movie. When I walked in and see this movie, I felt like watching a mixture of Saving Private Ryan, Thin Red Line, Black Hawke Down all at the same time. I guess they can't do anything about that...it is about war, so it must be about killing and dying. This movie, (individually) is good. The only thing that is letting me down is that this 'type' of movie had been done; once too many times. If they wanted to make another war movie, why not make it alittle different; in terms of perspective, or ways of filming or character development. The only war movie I mentioned above is any worth watching again is Thin Red Line. At least that movie attempts to do something different.
