Whatever you might think of 2024 Charlie Sheen, he was great in this movie. After the fight breaks up and he's blinking, disoriented, like he was just hallucinating the fight and maybe thinking it didn't really happen…that's just brilliant acting and perfectly encapsulates the emotional confusion of this scene.
War crime
الامريكان يغطوا وش سوو من كوارث بافلام انهم يحققوا العدالة وانسانيين وكذا 😂
COCKA DOW VC??
Don't care. Barnes was the man.
ya'll loved Elias.
I feel like these scenes came at a perfect time in the movie. The events are brutal and you hate the soldiers for what they're doing, but at the same time you understand them. Beyond the obvious disgust felt at this scenes, I personally wished that the group would have stuck together at any cost. I don't know wether Barnes would have actually done it, but I really wanted Elias to compromise a bit. To calm Barnes down and stop him from what he was doing and perhaps going to do, but ensure that he wasn't going to tell anyone and that the unity of the group was more important than trying to fight an brutal war in a just and civilized manner. The warcrimes were a tragedy, but so was the disunion of the American soldiers.
The messages in those scene's and the feedback we have gotten about thing's in that FUW of over forty year's ago is amazing. I'M a Seventies HS Graduate that TG I was too young too have too go, or be eligible for the Draft before it ended.
But the many teaching's of the ancient Chinese philosophers we're put too use so adamantly & just brutally in the Guerilla Warfare that they used.
FYI the people trusted No One, and the ARVN & US men couldn't trust anyone either. So it was Who? Who was Friend or For ❔❓❔over there.
The Mi Lai incident was a very big mistake that was all about the Guerilla warfare tactics that dealt with infiltration of the people's lives by Enemy influence at Night, & by intelligence Unit's from the Viet Cong, & NVA military organization's. Black op tactics. TKS.
Barnes later opened barnes and nobles with his brother nobles
Candyman was on barnes side?
This sums up the Vietnam tragedy………
Barnes did nothing wrong
The whole village scene is the best depiction of Vietnam war crimes i have seen in a movie, one of the best scenes in the movie, complete suspense all throughout.
I like how the white soldier talks in broken English to the Vietnamese guy
,in,1987_88,doing a tour of Belize,,things were hot,my Sargent shot dead a civilian on a river crossing,,we got chased by our own guys,,later the Sargent got busted to a corporal,,the shooting got brushed under the carpet,,on a mission in the jungle,later when we entered a village on the Guatamala border,,a kid was brought to us for medical attention,, the kid had been using a golac,a machete,and sliced her fight foot,,the wound was bad,, the Sargent,got out his toothpaste and squeezed it into the open wound,and said to me,strap it up,, foolishly I asked what was going on,,he replied get with the program,,I learnt a very valuable lesson,,when we returned to the UK,he was made back up to Sargent,,I often think to this day,what happened to that child,,, the thing is,you go with it or are cast out of the platoon,,I chose to go with it,,,
What is Barnes saying exactly anyone know I’ve been wondering about that since I was a kid 😂
Ese soldado si sabe defender Alos Ninos mientras que los de más son unos cobardes los niños no tienen la culpa que los ADultos Anden en la Gerra por eso después lo mata este soldado malo en lo que sige de la película y puede pasar en la vida real por qué en las gerras Andan soldados buenos y malos
How did Tom Berenger not get an oscar for best supporting actor for this amazing performance.
The past is the past. But hopefully you can see why we Vietnamese were determined to reunify our country. Because lots lost their lives. Innocent lives.
I know Barnes is supposed to be an antagonist and to be fair he is just a psychopath. But war is hell. You’re constantly on edge. Civilians could be enemies. Enemies are everywhere. If I suspect someone is VC, I might do the same thing. It’s me and my team or the enemy who’s wasted and is going to waste many more. There’s always bad guys in war (Abu Ghraib) but I think some dudes just get pushed way too far and just want to go home alive
