A brutal and realistic war film focuses on the lives of a squad of 14 U.S. Army soldiers of B Company, 3rd Battalion, 187th Infanty Regiment, 101st Airborne Division during the brutal 10 day (May 11-20, 1969) battle for Hill 937 in the A Shau Valley of Vietnam as they try again and again to take the fortified hill held by the North Vietnamese, and the faults and casualties they take every time in which the battle was later dubbed "Hamburger Hill" because enemy fire was so fierce that the fusillade of bullets turned assaulting troops into shreded hamburger meat.
A very realistic interpretation of one of the bloodiest battles of the Vietnam War.
This movie gives me chills. Talking to people like my father and history professor, this movie provides scenes and characters very similar to those in the war. At times I wished that I had lived during the sixties, this movie makes me realize that it is good that I didn't. NOTE: this movie is not for the faint of heart or for people who get queasy at the sight of blood.
I don't know why I like this depressingly bold war feature, as much as I do. Maybe because it basically stripes any sense of profound meaning to the bone, but to only focus on the men and their simple ask. And what an ask it was! The Vietnam War seemed to be a popular movie device around this time ('Platoon (1986)' and Full Metal Jacket (1987) '), but this one wasn't as spectacular as those other efforts. However while not as showy and consisting of star power, director John Irvin magnificently cooks up a raw, tough, gritty imprint of a war-torn country that's painted with drab and dank locations caught by doco-like filming. Just looking at these images, can pretty much drain the life right out of you because of the authentic styling. The vigorously random action set-pieces are grimy, bloody and covered with dirt, as nothing about it is glorified and it takes no prisoners. The final battle is powerfully engaging, but psychically demanding. Characters (which are notably characterised) come and go, with established relationship building to the rigid army orders and rather intense racial digs. Was this the act of desperation, confusion and fear? As they knew they were on a suicidal mission. But this conflict is a way they come to terms and learn how alike they are. What makes the dry, low-key material good is that it brings up many issues, without the need of pushing its own thoughts upon you. Because even so, it still manages strikes an emotional chord about the well written subtext. The performances are excellent with the likes of Dylan McDermott, Steven Weber, Don Cheadle, Anthony Barrile, Michael Boatman, Tegan West, Michael Dolan, Michael A. Nickles and Courtney B. Vance. Expert scorer Philip Glass' barnstorming score is pure ecstasy when it enters the frame, as it's deliberately sparse. Irvin soundly paces the story and cinematographer Peter MacDonald fittingly lenses the action. Irvin's Nam story is a honest and punishing look at war.
The hill had no value in itself, the allied forces only attacked it because the North Vietnamese Army forces were there. Once they withdrew to their safe havens in Laos and Cambodia where allied forces were forbidden to go there was no reason to keep troops on it. One of the criticisms of the allied high command is that their strategy was more akin to World War 2 and Korea where every piece of territory seized was a step closer to victory. In Vietnam merely occupying territory was meaningless as there were never enough forces to effectively seal the Laos/Cambodia border. "If you are able, save for them a place inside of you and save one backward glance when you are leaving for the places they can no longer go. Be not ashamed to say you loved them, though you may or may not have always. Take what they have taught you with their dying and keep it with your own. And in that time when men decide and feel safe to call the war insane, take one moment to embrace those gentle heroes you left behind.
Written by Major Michael O'Donnell, a helicopter pilot serving in the Vietnam War. He was later posted as Missing In Action during a rescue mission and in 1978 was declared legally dead. a5c7b9f00b
