I have never seen it, If I watch anything it’s helmet cam footage.Agreed. I could not believe how well they were able to remaster it and bring it into the 21st century. One of the most moving movies I’ve seen in a long, long time. Definitely one worth owning on Blu-ray when it comes out.
On another note, what do you think about Generation Kill, the HBO mini series. I am not a service member but I have a hard time watching a lot of war movies because they fuck so much shit up in them. And after watching Generation Kill several times, it only made it harder to watch war movies that don’t go for any semblance of realism.
Hollywood doesn’t do anything justice, take hacksaw ridge for example. A great story ruined by the worst combat scenes in any movie ever filmed. Not to mention using a flaming homo to play a deeply religious man ?
