Review of Flags of Our Fathers (2006) by Steveh. — 20 Oct 2006

As a few others have said, this is a good movie, not a great movie. The movie does not praise war nor does vilify it. The 3 main characters did there job and did not seek the praise they received. Even though these men could have walked away from the adulation, Eastwood's film lets you understand why they stayed.

I had trouble keeping characters straight but in the end, it didn't matter who raised the flag, they were all heroes.
