THE BADGE: Ruby Dee - in a heart wrenching role - reveals the pain a grandmother feels as she sends her beloved grandson overseas. THE PLAYER: Starring Frank Whaley & Michael DeLorenzo - A selfless squad leader must confront a parasitic hustler who's getting rich off the spoils of war.
Rating: Summary: CRAP! Review: This was utter, utter ...(bull). I rented this movie and I would have baseball batted this piece of ...(bull) across my backyard but, I didn't want to have to pay for it. Wasn't even worth the $4 I spent renting it. It's shallow attempt at sentimentality was just mindbogglingly stupid. I actually regret renting this and wasting those fleeting moments of my life on it. I wanted to sue the company that made this movie for that couple of hours I wasted on this ...(bull) back but, it wasn't worth the time. Complete ...(bull). Never ever even contemplate renting this. AWFUL.
