@@pagodebregaeforro2803 easy to say while youre not in a war where people are killing your "friends" and trying to kill you. You mightve snapped and gone psycho too. Good of you if you dont.

Great observation. NCO's and company grade officers have a big impact on morality of their units.

Lead by example.

No, its because most of them are infront of the column which is combat ready

I thought the first casualty was truth. (If you get the reference you're a god)

No, it’s peace

BIG DADDY PO I get the reference

BIG DADDY PO cod?

Tom Mitchell VC were basically like ISIS and the Taliban. No difference between burning down a VC village and one controlled by the Taliban.

Hahahaha Good one but also... no

Because of Oliver Stone fight as a soldier in Viet Nam. So even the soldiers dialogues sound realistic.

Band of Brothers is MUCH better. Plus this doesn't cover most of the BS thrown at both sides and makes shit way more dramatic than normally was, granted it did get this intense if not more many times. Oh and Full Metal Jacket is only saved by the basic training, the rest of the movie is garbage.

Dehumanization is part of war, see propaganda shit and see how they convince us that only some are good and others bad. But things like christmas or a simple smoke brand make us rethink that. Humanity is lost if we cant see ourselves as one

I agree completely! I think what you are actually referring to is film, as in film negatives, instead of digital. Shooting a movie on film makes it look more organic and real, and colors are very vibrant, as opposed to digital, which makes everything look flat and one dimensional. Quentin Tarantino elaborates about this all the time when talking about his filmmaking process.

I know yeah! 20th century look for any film makes it seem better. I feel like im watching some cheap remake if it was made today.

yes

Also shot on location helps a bunch, if this film was made today I bet it would mostly be greenscreen.

You can still achieve this look on digital with some colouring.

Another good actor was the little girl that Barnes threatened to shoot.

Green Goblin And Candyman

How did this not get an Oscar?

​@andrewsmith3257 It won 4 Oscars including Best Picture

al Mamluk by doing what's rigjt

Those vc did this those bastards

Correction this is how you make mortal enemies

no you don't if I was the vc I would have surrendered

Sam Steffen “If you were the VC you would have surrendered” “If I was this I would be a glorious hero” “If I was that I would have totally have been a Noble badass” Yea sure you would mate Keep dreaming in your ego

They have banned that now, but the only reason they have to do that because they don't know which is spies.

Other countries have done faaaaaaar worse, this is what ISIS does on a a daily basis but even worse.

war is a crime itself.

@@aclarkk5462 Thats why its ok to burn peoples villages and food. Because other people do worse stuff. American logic.

Burning these hooches was not a war crime. It was routine and instructed from above.

I am going to UUUSSSSAAAAA

@@crimsonfury7811 u going to disney land??

@Lisa Stettin lol nice story thank you for ur service from Australia

The soldiers use thme and human shields

“Think of what would have happened if we didn’t warn everyone about the NVA!”

"About the what?" (Had to finish it)

Thanks for your service god bless

icEy SKyz I’m not a veteran. I’m just quoting what one of the soldiers in Vietnam said.

@@GlamorousTitanic21 oh mybad thanks

geez. so this was actually something that happened regularly. that's messed up. no wonder America lost the war.

Ethan Nelson love your titanic pic

Now imagine living in a place where people the same race as you come to your village, murder the village chief, and force you to hide weapons/ammo and food and collect taxes from you and everyone else. Failure to cooperate results in everyone being eradicated. That’s what the VC did to people in South Vietnam. There were no innocent sides. We did commit some barbarous acts, but so did the VC, NVA, and the ARVN.

@@FN_FAL_4_ever the USA fd up... we had NO reason to be there

@@FN_FAL_4_ever "We would go through a village before dawn, rousting everybody out of bed and kicking down doors and dragging them out if they didn't move fast enough. They all had underground bunkers inside their huts to protect themselves against bombing and shelling. But to us the bunkers were Vietcong hiding places, and we'd blow them up with dynamite - and blow up the huts too. If we spotted rice lying around, we'd confiscate it to keep them from giving it to the Vietcong....[I]f they weren't pro-Vietcong before we got there, they sure as hell were by the time we left." ~ From Stanley Karnow's Vietnam: A History Sry buddy, US presence in Vietnam produced more VC supporters and in the long run became the greater of the two evils. The VC didn't even need to do anything other than selling the idea to the villages that foreign invaders are coming to destroy them. This is exactly what fking happened with the Taliban and ISIS coz the US refused to leave the Middle East alone.

Considering that the French colonized Vietnam in 1877 and, with the exception of Japanese occupation during world war 2, maintained the colony up until 1954, the Vietnamese likely kept up to date with ongoing trends in military technology via the French colonial troops during those times.

Sounds like your describing the white man taking away the lands of the native Americans!

This movie really doesn't shy away. It's like being kicked in the guts.

exactly my thoughts too looking it at now I was younger and didn't understand

bob bob thx u

@Mangekyo Better than being enslaved by Yanks.

@Mangekyo hmm , funnyman

@Gōdon Gurando Even though australia land is being brought by china and no one said anything about it hmmm

@WingsOfTruth yeah our nation face China's navy every years, not like your ally Philipines, or any other country in SEA. You never read our history don't you ? Yes we were enslaved in 1000 years, but we also rise up and fight in that period, we still keep our culture even Chinese tried to make Vietnamese become Chinese. And the next 1000 year, we became an independent kingdom, we defeat Han's army in Bach Dang river, we broke 2 invasion of Song dynasty(the second time our general Ly Thuong Kiet bring his troop destroy three provinces of Song 'south border). Then we defeat Mongol 3 times without any typhoon like Japan. After tha fallen of our Ho's dynasty, king Le Loi kick out Ming's army after 20 years. Finally is king Quang Trung strike the Qing army in some days. Ok that is our feudal time. The next period may be known by the world, France, Us can't overthrown our present goverment. The we kicked Pol Pot army to Thailand border in 2 weeks. Also in Feb 1979, 600.000 PLA invaded our north border and face against 90000 our milita and partisans troop in 2 weeks, and they can not push deeper to Hanoi like they planned.(They said:"Hanoi's rice for breakfast, Saigon's pho for dinner). The they have to retreat when our army from Cambodia transported back. And the Pol Pot is destroy, even though how hard Chinese tried to save them, and UN said Vietnam invased Cambodia. But we saved milions Cambodia people from holocaust. The world owns us an apologize. You can read our history on wikipedia. And remember: Google is free. Best regards.

S. Vietnamese stuck between rock and hard place. No clear love for either VC or South government. Don't forget, they suffered from the VC, but also the North used crafty tactics to cause the VC to become marginalized... and then they filled the vacuum with northern regulars and images of wise and just Uncle Ho Chi Min to weaken support for the Southern government and the US forces.

Konstantinos Nikolakakis why?

Vietcong did this too

@@punkassbitchesstolemymuffl6420 they would grew into hate and anger and would fight back even more

@@On_The_Piss No, my dad is Canadian and was born in the early 60's so he would have been too young to serve in Vietnam anyway. He was just deeply overwhelmed by the ugly nature of humanity on display in this scene.

@nhà độc tài Yang Wen Li Do you have problems with reading comprehension? I never talked about any faction, I am talking about all of us. Besides, the VC has not attacked any American citizens who have not participated in the war. Do you understand? stupid.

Charlie Harper dont abuse a Women or you never have see two and a half men.😁😁😁

@@Frank-ex2pb thats him in nam, after the war he lived in malibu in a beach house with Alan and Jake, and Berta always give Charlie flashbacks 😂

@@chrispersson7147 it's a statement buddy! No duh everybody knows it's a movie!

Platoon leader was a good movie

Apocalypse Now tho

+The ride never ends Yh absolute masterpiece from Coppola which says a lot, but you could also say that the film itself is great standalone regardless of the Vietnam aspect, it even works as some kind of metaphor for the pathway to evil inside all humans as well, but you can also say that the films plot and themes also trail into ultra surrealism even at the start of the film and descends into absolute insanity by the end. more of a brain trip and such than a complete reflection.

Tom Mitchell nothing beats apocalypse now

Tom Mitchell Go see the invisible wall!!! That movie is even better!

@@adizle827 "Glory to Russia" 🤡

Jon Snow and both movie is about Vietnam war. And both movie was shot in The islands of The Philippines

Hot Shots! Part Duex was a Rambo parody starting Charlie Sheen. There's a bit where Charlie is on a patrol boat doing his Platoon narration. He passes Martin doing his Apocalypse Now narration. When they pass each other they both smile and say "I loved you in WALLSTREET!" which they were both in together playing father and son rolls.

@@SlavaPunta wow thats actually cool. Never realised that XD

The soundtrack Is a masterprice.

Deemed the saddest song ever composed.

Yeah, the Vietnamese

The scene was reminiscent of the My Lai massacre. Only one person went to prison and he was pardoned soon after.

@@raymesquite Too my surprise much later; what happened at My Lai was that 500+ Vietnamese were victims.

Basically We Were Soldiers Too.

What exactly were they doing with the kid?

Cy Cy that was another soldier. Charlie Sheen had a green towel around his neck.

It's a well

Hồng Ngọc If they fought they weren’t good people They dressed as civilians pretending to be them Getting them killed as a consequence

dany leon The commies did. But those people were South Vietnamese.

That’s a really Nice detail

@@theequalizer694 well .. the VC waged a guerrilla war. i would guess that they had already infiltrated the village at some point .. and oliver stone fought in vietnam so he probably knows a thing or two about the conditions on the ground anyway :)

There are no good sides in war just young men sent to their deaths by old men

Richard Roberson true and as the saying goes war is hell

Captain Ghost Blame the government for dragging us over there. The soldiers acted that way because them Charlie Chan's were fighting back.

@@airforce262able Of course they fight back, it's their right.

@Captain Ghost your grandfather is the only american soldier who i will respect.. the rest are all cowards, since my godfather participated in the vietnam war and he killed 32 american marine officers and took their name tags, and dedicated those name tags to the innocent civilians who the americans killed during the Viet War..

Thanks for sharing that story now I don't care about how the vietnamies treated their own people but I do care about how pur troops treat others we are supposed to treat them fairly and with caution but also as human beings I don't care about treating them good for karma sake I care about doing the right thing even if it meant I'd be court marshalled no one friend or foe is justified for treating people in general like this your grand father seemed like a good man God rest his soul

LITTLE ALIEEEN 😔

Barnes was a born sociopath.

@@deb310red Barnes believes in what he's doing.

you now how many psychopaths join the army for this reason? One of the most prolific serial killers, Ramirez’s uncle, was a war veteran who mutilated, shrinked heads and took pic of the women he mutilated while being on Vietnam, Oh he did enjoy the fun, even hiding the shrink heads in a box like treasures in his house in America and showed the pics of mutilated victims proudly to his little nephew who needed up became a serial killer. Some men are born monsters, it’s a fact. There are many and many studies who have show there are people who are born to be psychopaths, war and the army is just a play field for them.

Beside Bunny, who was like that even before the war
