Reviews  A mans film to identify the injustice of war in Veitnam Tom Cruise portraying an important,strong and vibrant message, aimed at the American politetions at the time of the Vietnam war showing the aftermath and devistation to a single soldiers life, following dissability after serving his country and the reaction of the American peace campaigners in the 1960's. A true life situation for many young men, who served during this period. My type of film with every empathy for those that it affected. I purchased this film to remind me of all the young men that I saw back in the early sixties, going to and returning from Veitnam, they have my support and admiration for a job that they really did not understand, they stood up for there rights but are still to this day stigmatized!

Report this review born on the fourth of julyAn interesting film because it's based on a true story, but of course we never know exactly what might have been changed or exaggerated. It was made with the benefit of hindsight so was a bit "preachy". As in films of this nature some things were over-sentimentalised. It will obviously appeal to the anti-war or anti-American brigade. I'm not a great Tom Cruise fan but his performance was good, especially in the beginning as the typical all-American boy. Review ID: 10000000001999174 Was this review helpful? Report this review |
