SunnyHello Nice effects though.
Ceticultsot Beautiful, moving film.
Taraparain Tells a fascinating and unsettling true story, and does so well, without pretending to have all the answers.
Haven Kaycee It is encouraging that the film ends so strongly.Otherwise, it wouldn't have been a particularly memorable film
dazzawaites {how sleep the brave};although cheaply made this film is great ,i enjoyed watching it many time and is nice to see a film without all the effects you get these days.also as for acting it may be poor but not as poor as the stars making millions for scrips that are no more than 8 words long at a time and 3 to 4 camera angles a second that just make you dizzy,the film has lots of funny and sad parts and you can relate to how the men must of felt in the war and what it was like to loose close friends,the plot outlines on a platoon of soldiers being sent out to find a village that is hiding VC soldiers and there weapons, the Americans whom for some only have 8 days till they go home are not happy being sent on this mission but are doing it for there captain who has save there lives in the past ,lots of gore and blood if you like that sort of thing and plenty of fire power,finally not the greatest film i agree but well worth a watch if you can still find it,
paulmervyn When I first saw this movie(12 yrs old in '82), It Impacted me deeply,now call that sad if you want to, but this movie did have something. For me,it was the only war movie I had seen at that time that did'nt end up with the yanks overcoming great odds to achieve total victory. In fact it showed a desperate struggle to get the F**K out with your life,Yes,it was shot in some woods in England and it was low budget,with few actors,but it blew me away,it was raw and scary ,and memories of it have stayed with me until this day .Kids today would laugh at its cheap, low budget feel,but I can tell you,this film was the groundwork for all Vietnam movies that would follow. My verdict..If you were there in the early 80's, it's good........If you were born in the late 80's forget it! Stick with Platoon!!!!!!!!!!
robert dunn Worst Vietnam movie ever made? From what I remember (I saw this in the early 80s) it was the most realistic depiction of the stupidity of war since Paths of Glory and until Saving Private Ryan.Storyline gave way (to a certain extent) to simply showing it like it must have been - normal guys forced into being unfeeling killers, simply because the likelihood of your colleagues getting killed made it not worthwhile getting to know them well.See it for yourself, it won't be everyone's cup of tea but it's worth a look.
gemproductions English non-actors running through the English countryside, what were they thinking about? So bad you won´t believe it, and quite hard to track down.See "Zapper" instead.
