Definitely one of the finest war movies ever made !
Attention to detail is incredible, very well written and directed.
This film takes place predominantly underground in a network of small, narrow tunnels that were dug by the Vietcong during the Vietnam War in the 1960s. A group of inexperienced young American soldiers must navigate the entire tunnel system to locate a crucial secret list that has fallen into the hands of the Vietcong. Will they succeed in finding it, or will their efforts cost them their lives?
The film excels in maintaining a continuous sense of suspense, as the characters cautiously navigate the underground tunnels, constantly aware of the ever-present danger of encountering Vietcong soldiers around each corner. Moreover, there is the constant fear of becoming lost in the labyrinthine underground maze.
While notable actors like Aaron Eckhart and Jonathan Rhys Meyers only play minor supporting roles, the movie predominantly relies on talented young unknown actors who deliver commendable performances.
Is there anything negative about the film? It may not be an explosively thrilling war movie; rather, it primarily focuses on building suspense. However, I personally appreciated the tense atmosphere it created. The intensity escalates towards the end, culminating in chaotic mayhem and bloodshed, so patience is rewarded as the film progresses.
