i purchase a copy of this long and boring slow film after talk to a member of the memphis grizzlies nba basketball team ( who will remain nameless ) on an airplane trip from denver back to memphis . he say it be a great film and one that he enjoy . i think to myself that someone of his stature have all the time in the world to watch all kind of movie ( during the basketball off season ) . i be surprise to hear him speak to me about his passion for war movie and how much he recommend this one . he must have watch a different movie than i do . this movie start out like it be go to be very good and but then no real story develop . it do have some good aspect such a the dirty and gritty movie set and the realistic lingo and the grueling sound and and it be very historically accurate . they do that stuff well in this movie . . the problem with this movie be that it just doesn not develop a story and and it turn into 2 hour of nothing . . i keep wait for something to happen . and it never do . i have to purchase a copy of it because none of the video rental place have a copy to rent . do not buy this movie .
