I shall not be seeing this movie. I hate war movies. They are all the same to a certain extent.

You got the crazy guy who loves his job, and killing, but deep down has a sensitive side.

You got at least one black guy. Sometimes he's the crazy one. Usually he's the one who wants to go home to see his wife/gf/kids. He ends up dying.

You got the young white guy who has a "coming of age" experience and when the movie ends, he is no longer a boy, but instead, a man.

You have the gruff, but loveable sgt/lieutanant(sp). Who doesn't play a huge role, but usually gets made fun of behind his back, and happens to be standing behind the guy making the joke.

The of course you have the semi-realistic battle scenes. A few guys get injured. A few get killed. Blah Blah Blah, and the movie is over.

These movies are so bland and trite, it makes me want to shit on them. No disrespect to the men portrayed. I have a lot of respect for our armed forces. However, I can't stand war movies. They fucking suck a fat donkey dick (and horse clit).

Smoke a cigarette and lie some more -- These conversations kill.
