關於這部電影

We Were Soldiers is a powerful & bloody war movie based on a true story that moves at a heart-racing & ear-shattering pace! On Sunday November 14, 1965 at 10.48am, Lt. Col. Hal Moore (a magnificent performance by Academy Award Winner Mel Gibson) and his regiment of 400 men touch down at Landing Zone X-ray in the Ia Drang Valley, a place in Vietnam known as "The Valley of Death". They find themselves surrounded by roughly 2,000 North Vietnamese soldiers and the ensuing battle becomes one of the most savage in US history. Heroism, bravery, sacrifice, the butchery of battle, We Were Soldiers is a gruelling exploration of war with all its horrors, that can rightly take its place alongside war classics Apocalypse Now, Saving Private Ryan & Platoon.

Brilliant film btw. Saw this classic Vietnam film years ago and it's still one of the best I've ever seen... It begins when the French pull out of Vietnam and the Yanks go in to counteract the threat from Communism. As usual the yanks get their asses severely kicked by the locals with help from the Ruski's.. yeehaa!!!

One the best war films I have ever seen. Annoyed you cannot buy it.

Epic retelling of the Vietnam war. Highly emotional and superbly acted, one of the best war films ever made.
