Many of you know my penchant for films about the Vietnam War (which is weird, since I don't like violent films overall), and this one was no different. I loved seeing Robert De Niro, Christopher Walken, and most of all Meryl Streep in this movie - they were so young! The characters were interesting, even if they weren't always likable, and the movie explored one of my favorite topics - how war changes people. Ultimately a bond of friendship triumphed in the end, giving the movie a fulfilling ending without erasing the brutality of the characters' experiences. I'd watch this one again.
