Title: A based-on based-on movie
Review: This movie is an example of what happens when you depend on the entertainment industry for your history lessons. The person that wrote this script picked up every stereotype and myth about Viet Nam and Viet Nam veterans and wove it into the story.I guess you have to keep in mind that even when this industry tries to do factual stories they resort to the phrase 'based on' to excuse their careless handling of facts - in this case they have a 'based-on' 'based-on' movie.I'm amazed that any actor, actress, or director could have read this script and agreed to perform such trash.The idea that the woods are full of poor, crazed Viet Nam veterans - suffering from the trauma of killing children in Viet Nam is just silly.It's a fact (check the 2000 census) that while 10% of the population live below the poverty line - only 5% of veterans do.
