A war film directed by John Irvin.
A group of soldiers in Vietnam fight for control of a hill.
I'm realizing that the pace of the film is what I like about 1987. In that aspect, this film did well. The characters, setting and plot were extremely forgettable. The camera-work is another good aspect of that magic year. Not too much and not too little, just like the pace is just right. It turns out that the year was good for making good films, but bad films were also made. I'm rating this one poor for forgettability.
