The ball busting marine drill sergeant of Full Metal Jacket plays a drill instructor in this insane war film of Vietnam. Surprise.
A rousing film not to be taken completely seriously as nothing should be, the soldiers are taught to think and play like the Viet Cong/Minh by learning soccer and other things supposedly native. This will pay off in the end and not like that Michael Caine/Sylvester Stallone movie where they play the Nazis in arm wrestling for the custody of his son, sorry that was Over the Top not Victory.
Funny, bitter and scathing account of incompetence when things matter most and has R Lee Ermey in it. What could be better?
