REVIEW:
So it wasn't the best war movie I've ever seen, but it was still good.
The cinematography is amazing! So rich and with so much detail. The story is just okay though. Two soliders sent to stop the front lines from walking into a trap. Not that interesting and often predictable. A few yelling at the screen moments happened, not gonna lie. How it was all brought together, mixed with a tug on the emotional heart strings is what is makes it good.
Watched it with the hubby. He was engaged throughout, so that was good. He's not big on dramas. He really enjoyed this one though.
Full Metal Jacket is still my favorite but this is good enough to make my top ten!

REVIEW: It was weird starting off with a He-Man lookalike, Thunder the Barabarian), until I realized a character from the film was watching the cartoon in the airplane. Still, it was kind of cool to reminice about two cartoons from my childhood. So many great actors bring the film to life! What a fun story it was too! Although
