I've had no expectations, didn't watched any trailers, just knew it's a story about some guy crossing ocean to bring beer to his friends in Vietnam.
The movie did not started very well for my taste, and I thought it's going to be some silly stuff, caught myself checking my phone.
But after he reached Vietnam, I couldn't move my eyes off the screen anymore.
It's entertaining enough, and it had a good soundtrack and camera work, directed very well. The acting wasn't bad, "Chickie" managed to make me feel the war atmosphere. At some point it was unpredictable how it's going to end, especially with some twists and turns, and that's the beauty of cinematography - no matter based on a true story or not.
But at the end it managed to deliver the message, and got me into thinking about many thinks in life that we have for granted. No war is good, even if it's a war to save the world.
To me this is one of the better movies in recent years, without show offs and material values, simply executed with heart and soul, that's why it deserves a good word.
I'll definitely recommend it to my friends. Giving it 8/10 just because it managed to surprise me and kept me entertained for 2 hours.
