It looks like a good movie with a strong cast. I have read a little on it in Entertainment Weekly, but I am not sure on the overall end product of the movie itself. Nonetheless, if I can get someone to go see it with me I plan on seeing this film.

I enjoy knives and fire.

The tagline says it all, "welcome to the suck."

A whole lot of nothing goes on in this film

Right...but I still enjoyed the shit out of it. It was a lot more of a "real" look at war...probably. Not like I would know or anything. Drug on a bit...but that was probably by design more than anything. Pretty solid film.

I thought that it started out good and was entertaining, then it just drug on and on.

I understand that this was a good realistic view of the life of a marine in Desert Shield/Storm. It was just not what I anticipated by any means. I wanted to see shit get blown up and people die. Not 2 hours of people sitting there thinking "who is my girlfriend fucking right now, since I'm stuck over here in this shithole."

The Deer Hunter/Porn scene was rough, I'd be wanting to choke a bitch.

Damn good movie. Anybody who didn't like it just can't appreciate that there is more to a movie than action sequences. Very well done and pretty realistic.

It was good. Made me think the Marines are a tiny bit gay, but thats just me being immature. It was refreshing to see a war movie that did not revolve around color-by-number action sequences.

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.

Its funny because almost none of what you described here was in the movie Jarhead so I guess you can go suck a fat donkey dick.
