the war is over, but Vietnam vets suffer on - By: MilleR, 16 Apr 2008
I remember watching this film for the first time years back & loving it & although I still enjoyed it the second time around,I found that Ralph Macchio's acting let it down. His character just wasn't believable, the acting stilted & for some reason his 80's clothes & haircut made the film look dated.
The Vets roles were alll very well acted & show the heartbreak & dislocation from every day life that I imagine a lot of these veterans must have felt on returning home after the war.
The ending is somewhat predictable but heartwarming alll the same.
Overalll, definitely worth a watch.
