Title: As close as we'll ever get to being there.
Review: This movie is surprisingly accurate. All the way to the type of weapons, gear,and uniforms used by both sides. The battle is, for the most part, portrayed very accurately. All of the actors turned in strong performances. Even the Vietanmese translation was good (my mother is Vietnamese, she checked for me). This is probably the most accurate and best movie showing the early part (or any part) of the Vietnam War. Highly suggest this movie to war movie buffs and history buffs. The book is also a good read and gives even more detail.
