Negative Positive
Title: Still magnificent!
Review: The movie stands up wonderfully -- indeed, it is even better than I remembered. Watching it brought the whole miserable Viet Nam experience back to life. Performances are super -- not just Marlon, either. It's a hoot to see Harrison Ford in a bit part, and Martin Sheen's character surely provides rich back-story for Jed Bartlett, rather the way John Wayne's previous roles made True Grit so persuasive.Just one reservation: the Redux version is slower, due to self-indulgent editing, and less effective than the original.
Is the review positive or negative?
