Should be called "We were wasting four dollars".

Rating: Null/10 (28 August 2002)

Rented this one. Wasted four bucks.
Didn't finish the movie because I lost interest pretty quickly. The movie offended my intelligence when Mel Gibson makes his heroic multiculturally sensitive speech before leaving for Viet Nam. The way they've changed history to suggest a more politically correct world is illogical, unnecessary, and doesn't make for a better script, story, or movie. I think it makes Mel Gibson look better as a character in the movie, so I guess Mel can feel good about that.
I picked this scene example as one of ten+ instances where the movie is so inaccurate it offended. I'm guessing they picked a target audience young enough not to know their 60s history any better.
