Mel Gibson and Randall Wallace, the star and writer of Braveheart, reunite for this action-packed war movie that features explosive battle sequences, thrilling aerial photography and unforgettable military heroes who fought for their country, their loved ones and their freedom. The year is 1965 and America is at War with North Vietnam. Commanding the air cavalry is Lt. Col. Hal Moore (Gibson), a born leader committed to his troops. His target: the La Drang Valley, called "The Valley of Death." As Moore prepares for one of the most violent battles in U.S. history, he delivers a stirring promise to his soldiers and their families: "I will leave no man behind... dead or alive. We will all come home together." This heroic true story of commitment, courage and sacrifice also stars Madeline Stowe, Greg Kinnear, Sam Elliott, Chris Klein, Keri Russell and Barry Pepper.

True story about events that happened in the Vietnam war that stars Mel Gibson
This is 2020 and this movie was released in the theaters in 2002 so it is as of right now 18 years old and is now the first time while looking around on Amazon when I was made aware that this movie even existed and don't know how this movie got past me all these years because I am a big fan of Mel Gibson who plays a lieutenant in the movie. Look at the ratings look at the 5 stars 88% as I write this review. This movie is a true story and takes place in Vietnam. It is a war movie and what else really needs to be said about that . Lots of loud gunfire lots of men getting shot lots of blood (but this movie has nothing on the movie hacksaw ridge when it comes to blood and gore) . Lots of shouting of orders lots of young men who lost their lives over what but did what they did for "OUR" country because they were made to do so back in the day. Realistic and worth watching. Which I feel all Americans should see any war movie our American men and women have fought in I feel its the least we can do to see some of what they went through and if it becomes to hard to watch it we at least as we sit in our homes and on our comfortable chairs can shut it off it it becomes to much but when your a soldier you don't have that privilege. Recommend it to everyone and is rated R.

Pretty Good War Movie
It's about the battle of la Drang. I remember seeing this in the theater and it being pretty good but heavy and depressing. It does a good job building the story with details at a good pace. The battle is brutal as soon as they step foot. Some scenes are really annoying and some effects are odd but overall this falls in the good but not great category. It pays respect and inspires me to read the book.

War
Excellent movie
R**.
The struggle for survival is real.
The violence and futility of war along with heroism and sacrifice is right in your face. Mel Gibson captured it all in this epic struggle. I Highly recommend this film.

Great case and clean discs
A Classic that should be on 4k! But just as important is the case was sturdy and no plastic warp sticking to it. Inside the case was clean from the production line. Discs were clean and perfect. Well done Paramount! Others should take notes and use the same manufacturer. In the past I had to return movies because the case were broken, loose disc inside that got scratched and dirty cases inside. Well done!
