FYI...I have not seen this movie. But I have a family friend who has. He attended the West Point premiere.
He is no movie reviewer. He served several tours in Vietnam and was a career army officer. He did like BHD very much.
I'll just put out the bullets I heard:
Didn't like it.
When told directed by the writer of PH, he said "It figures."
Too cheesy.
Action scenes well done.
"Home" scenes not well done.
Apparently, it jumps from Vietnam to "home" to Vietnam to "home", etc. He called it jarring.
That's about it. Most of the stars were at the premiere.
He didn't hate it, he just didn't care for it.
Just wanted to share in the one opportunity where I claim to know someone who caught an early review.
Take care,
Chuck
