joel schumacher make a heck of a choice when he decide on this cast and this script . the story be well write and well lay out and and this entirely new cast of 10 or 12 central character be absolutely brilliant . it seem that there be 6 lead and about a half dozen support and and by far this be the best thing about the movie and the fresh young face of tomorrow . it have be a long time since hollywood have touch the controversial vietnam war film and which say something for thestory that need to be tell ( a state by schumacher ) and tigerland land in that handful of top war movie period . yet it can not be label a a war movie because it seem to be base more on the human spirit of bozz and the others . i think anyone who just want to see a good film with out all of the special fx and but just good and gritty drama should go see tigerland and obviously shumachers best work in the past 8 year .
