Thanks!  I'd love to hear from you if you liked it or not.  Still no word if captioned movie is coming to Indy at this moment.  So it looks like DVD option for me... I am used to this. 

I'll try to have a full report for you, Andy!

That sucks that you'll have to wait for the DVD. I'll be sure not to spoil the ending for you!

The movie critics rated it very poorly at approval rate of only 29% but the audience rated it very high at 85%!   What's wrong with this picture?  Critics couldn't put their anti-war beliefs aside?  

 

I wouldn't necessarily jump to that conclusion. I read through a few of the critics reviews and, even though I have yet to see the movie, I found their critiques reasonable.

Remember, critics get paid to be critical. Audiences are only asked if they liked it or not....

I'm hoping to see the movie later this week or early next.

I really want to see this movie badly.  My manager saw it last week and SHE loved it.  Yes a female!  Being deaf I would have to wait til DVD comes out so I can watch it with captions or open captioning comes here which I doubt it this time.

Something has been bugging me since I saw this...

I saw it last weekend and will see it again this weekend. One of the best military movies I've seen in a long time. As much action as a season of 24 packed into 2 hours.
