Battle Cry Reviews
where's the battle or even the cry
this would be epic of men in world war II is lifeless and as dull as they come. very little battles are shown and little else happans in this long boreing movie. check out the longest day it's better
Not as good as the book...
I read the book after entering the Corps, in what now seems like both yesterday and decades ago. It is timeless in its protrayal of enlisted Marines. There is a lot more to being a Marine than combat. Unfortunately, a big part of it is boredom and loneliness which this story nails right on the head.
I can add the face of someone I actually knew to every character in this story, including my own. While the situations in the current Corps are more like what is depicted in Full Metal Jacket (Boot Camp) and FoxNews, this is about the individual Marine.
And, since the Author WAS one of us, it is not surprising in its accuracy. It is both a valid representation of Marines in WWII and those presently serving.
But... the book is still much better than the movie.
