One of those movies based on a true story that you watch and just can't believe it actually happened. But at the same time it's so wild only real life could have scripted it.

What a marvel of modern cinema to make a movie about Vietnam and not use Fortunate Son in the soundtrack. Solid movie with an interesting and unique true story. Nothing groundbreaking, but it does do a good job of making opposing views at least feel genuine and connecting. Far too often, views are glazed over or propped as strawmen to be knocked down by the moral narrative of a story, but I felt every character here at least felt authentic.

The greatest Pabst commercial of all time!

It was just okay, although it could've easily been better. If they gave us a backstory of the guys he was bringing beer too, then it would've really felt connected.

Trust the audience over the critics - this one is definitely worth the watch. Not a cheap comedy, not yet a masterpiece. It strikes a good balance between light hearted and serious.
