Review of Casualties of War (1989) by Pierluigi P — 04 Sep 2008
A touching Vietnam movie. Big in scope and range, thanks to De Palma's bold cinematic tricks, Stephen Burum's cinematography and Ennio Morricone's score, which, as a matter of fact, is not one of his best, but it works.
I don't agree with people that say Michael J. Fox was miscast, I think his childish 'eternally young' looks served him in this contained, human, agonizing performance; and.
Sean Penn was as amazing as he always is when he plays profoundly immoral characters.
