Bear B @BearB Oct 31, 2026 Criminally underrated film. The Saving Private Ryan of The Vietnam War. God bless those courageous men. See more

Frank V @ltcfrankv Oct 4, 2026 Although somewhat graphic, a Great War movie telling the story of brave men. See more

Adelay C @27adeco Sep 27, 2026 Dang, that first half made me wish I was deaf. The clunky wording and poor acting make for a less than enjoyable time. It is hard to establish a connection with any of the characters, but I appreciated Barry Pepper’s character, and the conclusion of this film was decent. Despite its flaws, it’s still a solid portrayal of a historical era that many of us would do well to remember. See more

Carlos T @RT67858720 Aug 24, 2026 Baseado em fatos reais, *Fomos Heróis* retrata a Batalha de Ia Drang, em 1965, um dos primeiros grandes confrontos entre tropas americanas e vietnamitas durante a Guerra do Vietnã. Mel Gibson interpreta Hal Moore, comandante responsável por conduzir seus homens para uma região onde a superioridade numérica do inimigo transforma cada minuto em uma luta pela sobrevivência. O filme não se limita ao campo de batalha. E esse é um de seus maiores méritos. Enquanto os soldados enfrentam tiros, medo e morte, suas famílias permanecem em casa esperando notícias. A guerra, portanto, acontece em dois lugares: no campo de combate e dentro das casas daqueles que aguardam. ⭐ Minha nota: 7/10** See more

Andrew T @RT26197345 Aug 17, 2026 We Were Soldiers hits differently because it never lets you forget that every man on that battlefield had a family waiting for him at home. Based on the real Battle of Ia Drang and the experiences of Lt. Col. Hal Moore and the men who fought there, the movie captures the chaos, fear, leadership, sacrifice, and brotherhood of soldiers suddenly thrown into one of the first major battles between U.S. forces and the North Vietnamese Army. What I love most is that it doesn’t treat the enemy as faceless monsters. It shows courage and loss on both sides while still honoring the extraordinary bravery of the American soldiers who held their ground under horrific conditions. The combat is intense, but the scenes with the wives receiving telegrams are just as devastating. Leadership, loyalty, grief, courage, and sacrifice all come together beautifully. A powerful war movie, made even more meaningful by knowing these were real men and real families who lived it. See more
