I was really looking forward to this film after reading the synopsis, but have to say it was very disappointing. The acting is just awful. The sets are terrible - it looks like it was filmed in a Californian park, certainly nowhere near the jungles of Vietnam! And while the plot had potential, the script was so laughably bad that the whole movie just came off as ridiculous and unbelievable.
The premise of a gay-themed war movie is such a good idea, with the potential to create a real masterpiece, with the same depth and nuance of, say, Brokeback Mountain. Sadly, Love in Country comes nowhere near that. What a pity.
