I don't usually rate movies badly, so I'll give 7/10 because the actors all acted well given the limited material.
Ben, Paul and Frank are all characters that are very real. Frank as the friend who is constantly being beaten up by his mum, but is totally loyal to Ben and Paul; Paul, the good friend turned bad, convincingly played by Waise Lee, though how his character eventually joins a company, or how TLCW's character, Ben has a son is not well explained. From the time frame of the movie, it didn't seem that they were in Vietnam for very long, for this I feel the producers should have explained how long Ben was away in Vietnam. The last part of the movie where there is a showdown between Ben and Paul seems to dominate, and hence makes the plot look as though it is hanging from the threads.
What a pity, they had some really good actors in this movie, but the plot needs greater development...remake, anyone?
