1270 – Platoon


Okay. So I finally watched this film and now people can stop giving me shit. I’ve always heard good things about this film, but it still didn’t prepare me for the ride. Not so much about war, as it’s about what war does to you – it’s a great film filled with tension and a star-studded cast. (Who know that Charles Grodin was once known as Mark Moses???). Tom Berenger probably doesn’t get enough props, but the man has a great resume and it a force of an actor – especially here. I really look forward to diving into the special features of this DVD. Easily my favorite Oliver Stone film.
