this movie play more a a tool of propaganda for the u military and than present a good story with good acting and memorable character . instead we just sit back and be just watch thing happen like a 3 minute news reel . you feel no sense of danger when the battle be range and you do not feel camradare for the soldier fight cause the actor be lame and you do not feel sadness when the soldier die . we be force to fumble along a the hero and go from battle to battle and it all the same . on top of that we have to keep hear his humility in how he always say he not worthy of be promote . and of course we then hear all his buddy congratulate him . over and over and over and over . it like watch 4 year old play cowboy and indians it bang bang your dead i win the end . and of course the only native guy in the picture have to be refer to a chief . there be one actor in this picture whose character be interesting and seem like he would develop on in the film . but his presence and dialogue in the movie die ( not cause he be kill ) shortly leave me more frustrated . the thing be there probably be a real story here but the translation just doesn not work in this film . rating negative .
