One of the best Vietnam War films ever

on September 19, 2014

from FL

Verified Purchase:Yes

I know it's an unexpensive series of blurays but few extras. The movie itself is Oliver Stone's second best (after Nixon).

My Best Buy number: 2833692841

What's great about it: Mostly everything

What's not so great: Production values of the blu ray

The 'Nam' up front and personal!

on October 12, 2014

from San Antonio, TX

Verified Purchase:Yes

This classic makes me feel like I am there with them. The cinematography, acting, location, and special effects make "Platoon" an unforgettable experience. The emotions, tension, humor, uneasy relationships, tragedy, and physical pain reaches beyond the screen. It yanks you in and doesn't let go until the very end.
