1 star minus 1000! horrible crap. don't rent or buy it!!!!!! July 4 2004
Format:VHS Tape
this hbo vietnam era movie sucks big time. lousy script, bad acting, bad directing, whatever it could come up to your mind. having some comedians played the soldiers with 1990 attitude and dialogue, those marine grunts instead of holding m16s but grasped weaponries that only special troops in the desert storm theatre could ever receive is one of the major flaws that cannot be overlooked. some of the grunts like eddie griffith and one of the other guy talked like they were on stage doing the standup comedy shows, sucks, man. the whole setting looked so bad too, doesn't look a bit like vietnam but some botanic gardens or one of the national forests. hbo's homemade movies always like this lamer, bad directing, bad actors, bad script, bad everything. for war movies gobblers, you should watch 'full metal jacket', 'hamburger hill' 'tear of the sun' but never this one lousy bomber.

Only the military could bring them together Oct 16 2002
Format:VHS Tape
A preacher fleeing a town in which he murdered his wife and her lover, a teenage boy showing his love to his high school sweetheart, a former meatpacker trying to get money to start his own business, a mechanic trying to get onbase housing and fleeing housing discrimination in L.A., and a trigger happy guy fleeing the mob. This crew unites in The Marine Corps on a rescue mission that turns out to be a decoy mission. Hoover (Eddie Griffin) makes the movie enjoyable while Sgt. Barkley (joe Morton) keeps it military. Cole ( Allen Payne) keeps it real with the tiki and his insistence on not calling Muhammad Ali Cassius Clay. This movie covers the Black Veteran in Vietnam in a dramatic way.

Walking Dead Sep 23 2001
Format:VHS Tape
This movie is about a black army platoon who thinks they have gone on a secret military operation but, are really decoys...So they are not the hunters they are the hunted...All of these black men came from diffrent backrounds ..so that creates tension through the entire film..All around good movie...

A joke to the Marines who served with "The Walking Dead"
The piece of garabage don't even rate. I served with the Marine Outfit known as "The Walking Dead" or The 1st Bn. 9th Marines. Read more

Best Movie ever
This is a very realistic portrayal of an "unwinnable"war. My dad is a Vietnam vet and the stories he tells parallel whathappens in the movie.

**Excellent!**
Not only was it exciting, it had everything to do with the fighting part of the war. It was a bunch of flashbacks, which in my opinion, are the best kind of movies; but these... Read more

Griffin's perfomance was under estimated
I think that this movie is the most real view on why blacks joined the corp, and I think that Eddi Griffin's comical pesonality is what the director had in mind to show how cold... Read more
