Fox said:Not really. It's sucks. It needs more action. Marines supposed to be first to fight. Then let the army do their job behind marines. Oh, yeah. Gen. Schwarskopf is a big army man.

Hollow-wood does not make films to reflect reality. They make films to make money and to do that you must entertain. Reality is not entertaining for most people hence the crap you see on the screen purporting to be reality.

Great entertainment- sure, true to life abso:cen:inglutely not. What is more disturbing to me than this film is the fact some of you actually had the thought it might possibly could be real. :shock:
