We Were Soldiers

Actors:  Mel Gibson, Madeline Stowe, Greg Kinnear, Sam Elliot, Chris Klein

Rating: 9 out of 10, superb chronicle of epic battle for LZ X-ray in Vietnam and captures the bond of the men under fire and the equally tough battle of the wives left behind who receive the news.  Best Vietnam movie ever made with truly amazing and realistic special effects that perfectly portray just how desperate some of this battle was.

MVP:  Elliott as CSM Basil Plumley perfecting captures fighting spirit of NCOs
