I thought this film was so good. thumbs up to Oliver stone (the director). although the swear words in every sentence kind of annoyed me, I thought that I was really in the Vietnamese war with these soldiers and that the deaths, explosions and setting were very scary and real. This film has big actors early on in their careers when they weren't as well known E.G Johnny Depp and Charlie Sheen I doubt that I will forget this film soon. I highly recommended recommended this movie to anyone who need a bit of thrill or excitement as this movie will do just that. Also you may need a box of tissues just in case.
