The first twenty minutes of the film has soldiers engaged in a multitude of conversations in the dark. Then the sun comes up and they start walking, but they continue to talk non-stop. Most of what they say is neither amusing nor profound. They just blabber on and on about mundane things. It seems the soldiers can simply bore the enemy to death with their gabfest. This is hailed as realistic cinema, but reality does not a great movie make. There is also a corny ballad about the soldiers that's overplayed. Andrews and Conte lead a good cast, but are let down by the lame script. It perks up in the end, but it's too little, too late.
