Summary: Remember this is a MOVIE...
Comment: I always have to debunk those negative remarks when it comes to military movies. First of all, the U.S. government is not going to allow a true movie to come about any mission. Secondly, the director got the idea from someone who was obviously involved in this situation so don't blame them, blame the person who told it. Black Hawk Down contained fallacies itself. Don't believe me? The next time you watch a "military" movie, watch it with a servicemember: They will find something wrong. ACTUAL REPRESENTATION IS NOT ALLOWED.
I enjoyed this movie immensely: The actors work well together and it imparts the idea that everyone has a reason for joining the military. It is interesting and I am happy to have it as part of my movie collection.

Summary: The Walking Dead
Comment: It is a crying shame that the producers of this piece of crap chose to use this title. First Battalion Ninth Marine Regiment nicknamed "The Walking Dead" has been done a tremendous discredit by having their name associated with such Hollywood garbage. Read the book instead and don't waste one penny on this junk. The real story of 1/9 would make a tremendous movie.

Summary: Only the military could bring them together
Comment: A preacher fleeing a town in which he murdered his wife and her lover, a teenage boy showing his love to his high school sweetheart, a former meatpacker trying to get money to start his own business, a mechanic trying to get onbase housing and fleeing housing discrimination in L.A., and a trigger happy guy fleeing the mob. This crew unites in The Marine Corps on a rescue mission that turns out to be a decoy mission. Hoover (Eddie Griffin) makes the movie enjoyable while Sgt. Barkley (joe Morton) keeps it military. Cole ( Allen Payne) keeps it real with the tiki and his insistence on not calling Muhammad Ali Cassius Clay. This movie covers the Black Veteran in Vietnam in a dramatic way.

Starring Allen Payne and Eddie Griffin, five young marines are on a deadly mission in a desperate struggle for survival. How did they get to be there - and how are they going to get out alive?
