Classic alternate history, worth a watch for the story but the acting leaves a bit to be desired
I like the new one a little better, but this one is good too.
This film contributed a lot to the current ratings system. This film is still impactful even after all these years. A classic movie.
Some of the dialogue feels a little contrived. But an otherwise well executed idea. Not Swayze’s best.
The classic, even though I saw the remake first this didn’t disappoint
A masterpiece by Millius! Red Dwan is a beautiful brutal film
Straight American propaganda but a good time. The performances by the young protagonists are compelling and the action set pieces are great.
Brutal glimpse into what it might look like if America served as the frontlines for a World War
Another great classic but I think I like this and the new one equally for separate reasons.
Awesome classic. Terrifyingly relevant. The new one is great as well, for different reasons.
