It was a very good movie. One of the best I`ve ever seen. But I wonder. Will this movie be good enough to win an Oscar? Lets hope so!

A good attempt at bring the book to the big screen. An excellent depiction of war, but the `charge` at the end was too similar to the charge in "The Patriot". Read the book.

We were soldiers, I think, is one of the best war movies out there. It was a powerful and moving story. It showed the horrors of war, but also the brotherhood of soldiers. This was a great movie!

Average Movie. Weak plot by the people who brought us Braveheart. Now that was a movie. Nice speeches by Mel Gibson, but nevertheless a weak plot. Tried to copy the realism of Black Hawk Down but cam short

War movies are my prefered genre - thus, I have watched hundreds of them. This movie, We Were Soldiers, affected me to a point where I had to step out of the theatre for a few moments. This has never happened to me before and I do not expect to see another movie as griping for a long time yet. VERY POWERFUL!

Absolutely incredible. Regardless of how the Americans did in the Viet Nam war, this battle happened and the story really brings that home, not only on the battle field but with the wives back home. Excellent! Will definitely get this one on DVD!

This movie was a very graphic portrayl of war. Not only of the vilonece and killing, but the planning, straticgic thinking and the human side on how human society is affected. It showed the real pro`s and con`s. I was aprehensive about Mel Gibson in this type of role but he was fantastic. Very real and an important film to see.
