Title: Worth watching
Review: The only reason I watched and bought this DVD is because I admire Mel Gibson so much. It isn't the greatest film in regard to war, but the films attraction is how it weaves the horrors of war with the families left behind and what it must be like for wives and parents to get the notice their loved one has been killed in a land far away. I know the hell of war, having had immediate family in WW2, Korea, Viet Nam, the first Gulf War, and now Iraq. But the constant barrage of killing scenes did leave me a tad overwhelmed and after a few minutes I found myself thinking "ok enough already". This is where I wish they had interspersed more homefront connection scenes. But in the end, it is a movie I appreciate and would recommend.
