CGiii Comment
Another weird little addition to the career of Furie.
The main problem with this film is the writing - there has obviously been money spent...but, alas, not on the script.
There have been many hard-hitting Vietnam war films and this doesn't bring anything new and fails to pack the necessary powerful punch.
As for CGiii - there is a seemingly pointless scene with a 'gay' marine - but this is the twist in the tale and a pretty pathetic one at that...
It's not a terrible film - it's just not very good - blame the writers.
