One of the best war movies ever

Rating: 10/10 (10 June 2002)

I found this movie to be one of the best movies i have seen even, and clearly one of the best war movies of all time. Whether or not the press agrees with me, this movie really gripped at the right issues surrounding the Vietnam War, both in the battlefield and on the home front. It confronted the emotions and fears that soldiers and their families have regardless of where the war is and where they are living. Some tremendous acting. I am usually very critical of movies, and I am not afraid to really tear up a movie I didn't like. I couldn't find anything wrong with this movie. It is obviously not for all audiences, as it is war and it has some extremely realistic (but not disgustingly graphic) war scenes.
