Review of Platoon (1986) by Eugene B — 18 Feb 2015
Platoon is the landmark definition of a war film. Pulse-pounding sequences stacked on well-performed portrayal of soldiers (Sheen, Berenger & Dafoe) as well as a couple of heart-wrenching scenes that would be somewhat difficult to view.
The film is Oliver Stone's most significant to date, especially since it's based off his own personal experience in the Vietnam War. 4/5.
