Great Movie, 9 February 2002
10/10
Author: jkin355871 from USA

This is one of the best wartime movies that I have ever seen. It was very touching and very well acted. This movie is a good dramatisation of what it is really like in the military. As a military vet I know what it was like to have good friends and how to work as a team.
