Apocalypse Now
Perfect 11 Points 1979

A fantastic film cataloguing insanity, war and imperialism, Apocalypse Now is a sprawling, magnificent film that masterfully builds up dread and tension through its adaptation of Conrad’s Heart of Darkness.

Good 17 Points 1991

Has glorifying insubordination gone out of style? If so, watch Flight of the Intruder for some gold old ‘disobey orders for a worthy cause’ nostalgia. The plot is pretty much a joke and tries too hard to be a Carrier borne top gun. That said, if you are like me and enjoy anything that has stres…

Hamburger Hill
Very Good 17 Points 1987

What makes Hamburger Hill worth watching is that it differentiates itself from the overly produced war movies like Apocalypse Now and Full Metal Jacket and just tells the story of one of the more infamous battles of Vietnam in a straight-up fashion. Just a group of Infantry trying to survive from…

Platoon
Very Good 7 Points 1986

Brutally violent and engaging, Platoon takes the Vietnam War and centres it around a battle between two men for a new recruit’s soul, utilising setting, a wide range of acting skill and narrative to present war from an ordinary man’s viewpoint.

Rescue Dawn
Really Great 29 Points 2006

Christian Bale stars in a “McGuyver meets Stalag 13” film about a US Figher pilot shot down in Laos during the Vietnam war. Filled with plenty of action and a fairly deep study of character and strength you will find yourself engrossed in all the phases from capture, comraderie, and escape.

The Sapphires
Great 66 Points 2012

Sweet soul music forms the soundtrack of this infectiously enjoyable Australian musical-comedy. Telling the truthy tale of four black girls from Down Under who performed American soul music for U.S. GIs and Marines in Vietnam, The Sapphires tickles, touches and torches in equal measure.

Good 83 Points 2002

Admirable and interesting, this retelling of the first major battle of the Vietnam War nonetheless can’t escape the overall drag of that war’s outcome, and in fact the similar outcome of the Battle of Ia Drang depicted in the movie.

Still, the …
