Title: Gallipoli - Over The Top Cannon Fodder
Review: I just added this one to my collection. A great film. Mel Gibson at his best. A bit over the top with the attitude towards the British Officers. None the less, the fact remains that volunteering for a comabat unit, with all the idealistic notions that war is a glorious affair will get one killed. Throughtout history soldiers have been sent charging forward to meet certain death, as an acceptable loss. This is one of the films I would recommend to a parent trying to discourage a son wanting to volunteer to go off to war. Born On The Fourth of July, Platoon, and Article 99 and also serve as a warning that sometimes even surviving doesn't end the horror. These people will get you killed.
