Review of Born on the Fourth of July (1989) by Jaime R — 15 Apr 2013
It's amazing how Tom Cruise was able to portray the Vietnam War hero known as Ron Kovic. His performance in the film has stunned me, and has left me to wonder how a single performance can make the film one of the best war films I have ever seen in my life.
Oliver Stone is an outstanding director, and his view on the Vietnam War as a former veteran were excellent. Though this film did not meet what I expected from "Platoon", it is still a very enjoyable masterpiece.
