Jonathan Spence

Extremely well done! Some of the footage at the beginning of the movie might cause dizziness, but it doesn't last very long. The realism and the superb acting make this film a winner. Although there are many dead bodies and wounded soldiers, it is not overly gory. Not a movie for children by any means. George McKay should get the Oscar for Best Actor and the film Best Picture. Maybe not a good date movie, but that would depend on the girl and if she would like to see it. My wife was not offput by the images of the dead or wounded and she doesn't like gore, so not too bad on that. Definitely worth seeing in the theater.

What men want is to be able to take their wives to a movie that isn't constant profanity and vulgar humor. We got up and left the movie. Being funny without being filthy was beyond the ability of this movie. If you are a guy, then do NOT take a date to this one. This is the first time in my life that I felt compelled to write a review on a movie.
