I thought it was a movie that expressed the frailties of human beings in a war, and it was much less gung-ho than the review that I read made it out to be. It had stunning effects, and a storyline that made me think of the movie long after it was over. I thought that the Hanoi bombing was a relatively realistic overtaking, due to the man, Grafton, being affected by his closest friend being killed by a lucky shot. I suggest you read the book. It is a good book that dives deep into the problems and conflicts that surround this movie.

This movie is very good, its one of my favorites the A-6 was a good plane.. I wish they would make more movies like this..
