Thoughts;
Although there are tons of people in this movie, I only listed 2, as these are the only two “main” stars. The whole movie really revolves around these two people.

This was the best “war” movie I’ve ever seen, although it was way longer than it needed to be. I understand that they wanted the audience to see the perils of war and what it does to the soldiers, there were just tons of scenes that this movie could have done without. So many little details that just didn’t need to be in the movie.

The movie was very good, slow moving at first and got better towards the middle and the end. Because this was so well publicized, you knew he wasn’t going to die in the war.

I wish they would have skipped a lot of the little things and told us more about how he actually died, what happened and what happened to the man that killed him. I was disappointed that we never really found out.
