I had never even heard of this "War" movie until recently... Could not wait to get it... It is a story along the lines of "A Band of Brothers" without too much of the blood and guts... I really enjoyed it... AdamP January 8, 2009

This is not so much a review as a complaint. I ordered this movie mainly because it won an academy award for Best Song, that being the song...LINDA. That also happens to be the name of one of my daughters, so I ordered it kind of for her. Upon receiving the movie, I immediately ran it , anticipating hearing that song. Alas, the song didn't appear anywhere in the movie. It must have been trimmed for whatever purposes when making the DVD. I am going to watch it again and see if I missed it in the opening intros, but am pretty sure it wasn't there. Since the movie is basically just an OK war story, I wouldn't have ordered it had I known LINDA was missing. What say? September 3, 2008
