Title: Fails to impress
Product review: The film is very different from the rather dry book. Anyone who expects a moral lesson from the film will be disapointed: it's just about killing the enemy. Hence, the film includes much violence.The director has tried to bring some finer points across, though. To those who care to look a little bit deeper it will become evident that the government and the army aren't really the "good guys". In facts they are portrayed as fascists - evident for example from the soldiers' unfiforms which are nearly an exact replica of German uniforms during WW2. The stylized symbol of Earth Government also looks suspiciously similar to Germany's imperial eagle. But I guess such points are lost on 99% of the American audience (see the reviews above).
