I love a good war movie.. I love a good action movie.. this movie provides neither. This is by far the worst movie I've ever seen with such a talented cast. If you've seen the previews, you've seen the best parts of the movie. Everything else is - more or less - just filler. Bottom Line: Only watch this movie if you are having trouble falling asleep.
I was surprised when I found out this was a Sem Mendes piece. Maybe it was the subject matter but I did not find it near the calibur of "American Beauty". It seemed to drag on at times and maybe that was the point as the war must have for those young men. The oil rain scenes are haunting and the snipers desire to kill even when ordered to stand down turned me off a bit. Jake Gyllenhaal and Jamie Farr gave fine performances non the less.
Not a fan of all the wars we are entagled in. Boy things have changed over the last eight years even people who supported the empires strangle hold on the world are realizing at what cost and how many more will die in a place that is evident in this film that doesn't want us to be their. This is in no way the soldiers fault but is a reflection of the leadership and the lack thereof.
I love this movie My husband is in the army and its also one of his fav movies its funny and has a good story line one of the best marine movies beside full medal jacket =)
Great movie, and the HD special features are great. It sets a very real example of what life is like as a marine.
