Title: Yeah, right
Product review: Yeah, this is the best war movie ever...if you've never seen Gallipoli or Paths of Glory or Kelly's Heroes, which it was apparently stolen from along with the Kuwati gold. The fact that so many people "looooove" this film is sort of a sad comment on the MTV generation that doesn't know what's come before and can only sit though a film that sifts scenes as often as an eighteen wheeler heading up a hill. And for a film that is supposed to be important, it sure treats war, death and destruction frivolusly, then tacks on a studio ending so we're supposed to feel good about greedy soldiers who desert their unit to make some money. At the very least the movie should have examined why they were driven by greed. I guess the director was more interested in cool shots than a good script. Yeah, it's the best film of '99, as long as you don't count every other film that was made.
