Under Heavy Fire

Rating:
Summary: Van Pham needs help
Review: This movie shows American soldiers commiting war crimes yet Van says they are spotless in this "racist" film. what a load of crap. The acting is ok, the story is well done as far as the strong emotions brought to the surface as the soldiers attempt to heal their emotional scars. As far as the people criticizing the amount of action, the title accuratly depicts the error of an individual who is under heavy fire and calls in bad coordinance for the air strike that kills his fellow troops.

Summary: Under Heavy Sedation
Review: Under the guise of being a movie about healing of Vietnam War Veterans this movie is just the opposite. In the movie these old soldiers get together and find out what trigger happy baby killers they were when they were young. Apparently there are still folks out there that find it neccessary to keep on spitting on vets. I picked up this DVD cheap and kind of sorry that I spent the six bucks for it. If you want to see a good Vietnam flick, spend your money on WHEN WE WERE SOLDIERS. It is a much better storyline and the folks in it actually do a good job of acting. UNDER HEAVY FIRE on the other hand is a B movie, with a lousy story and poorly executed. Sappy-sappy-sappy with a big group hug in the end. What a waste. Why do I have to give this move a star. Why can't I give it a minus three stars?

Summary: A great war movie that should not be missed
Review: Very good movie after seeing the "Band of Brothers". I don't want to write a high school like book report to tell you the details and ruin your watching enjoyment. There are certain great emotions and passions in this movie. Redemption, memories, ghosts haunted the VietNam veterans for so many years. Great Marines only became the victims of the wrong decision of the government. It only made me think that if our government did not decide to involve in the VietNam war, and just let the North take over the corrupted South VietNam sooner, and then corrupted themselves later, there would be no so many lives lost on both sides for nothing. The wrong decision makers of the governments actually are the biggest murderers by using the terms of "National Interests", or for the interestes of the PEOPLE. And the people should not become the pawns of a wrong policy. Life is so short to be wasted in vain. Watching sun rise and sun set together with the your family and reading great books once in a while are the best policy for our common people.
