Movies usually portray wars in a very biased and subjective manner. And I hate when moviemakers make fun and entertainment out of war, It's just horrible.DEZMONDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14127166104359407763noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2836661004273915348.post-83390122160002578122010-04-13T12:43:37.475+01:002010-04-13T12:43:37.475+01:00@Jacctev - but, the question is, what about 'j...@Jacctev - but, the question is, what about 'jack' and 'youth in revolt'. How can Coppola go from The Godfather and Apocalypse Now... to his recent efforts!<br /><br />@Fitz - yeah, I don't think i could last at 2.30am. as i said, as soon as you step on the gently moving boat, i would be asleep and indeed was- when I watched the redux.<br /><br />@Marcy - yeah, i doubt i'll ever go back and watch the redux again. Unless I watch the theatrical one enough that i become obsessed and then have to watch the redux one. I doubt that will happen in the near future at the very least.simoncolumbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09027922399726786918noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2836661004273915348.post-76721055794332787902010-04-13T01:19:39.150+01:002010-04-13T01:19:39.150+01:00This movie is amazing.
