Old fashioned war film
28 April 2003
This is the way war movies used to be made. Pretty bloodless, no swearing, but still a pretty good film. This is proof that the public doesn't really need to see guts and brains to enjoy a war film. A lot of war films were made in the 40s and 50s, mostly about World War 2 and this is one of them. Combat is often described as long periods of boredom punctuated by short periods of sheer terror. This film works just that way. There's a lot of conversation, but all of a sudden, the men are under fire. Overall, I like it - you will too.
