I watched this film for the first time while I was a teenager and have watched it many times since. While not the most accurate Vietnam movie ever made but still a good one. I like the first half of the movie the best. To me you could feel the build-up to the VC attack on the SF camp, that part was well done. My favorite characters were Sgt Peterson and Sgt Muldoon. To this day the way they killed off Sgt Peterson at the end of the movie was infuriates me, the movie was over for crying out loud..lol.. I believe the main gripe some people have with this movie was that it was pro-war movie which is a no-no in todays and back when the movie was made world view. "Platoon" while a good movie put all of the bad things(executions, rapes, drugs, fragings,insubordinatation, etc.) that happened there into one movie. I also liked the green Beret Hymn at the beginning.
