Gator Posted March 22, 2007 Report Share Posted March 22, 2007 Has anyone seen this? I have been watching it here and there while my wife has been gone, and finally finished it last night. The ending, to me, has got to be the most depressing ending to a movie I have ever seen. It's sad what happened to Ira Hayes after he came back, guy looks like he could never really adjust to life back home. I need to sit down and watch it all the way through Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrWiggely Posted March 22, 2007 Report Share Posted March 22, 2007 Re: Flags of our Fathers (The Movie) My wife and I watched it and we loved it. I am not sure about letting the kids watch it though, it is kinda gory and my kids are both young. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JDAWG Posted March 22, 2007 Report Share Posted March 22, 2007 Re: Flags of our Fathers (The Movie) When people are looking for "heros", look at what they will believe. The movie was great. It was very disturbing to think that our country actually did some of those things Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tominator Posted March 22, 2007 Report Share Posted March 22, 2007 Re: Flags of our Fathers (The Movie) I read the book before watching the flick. Book was much better. Sad that Ira got involved with alcohol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
muggs Posted March 22, 2007 Report Share Posted March 22, 2007 Re: Flags of our Fathers (The Movie) I was really disappointed with it. I'm a huge WWII history buff, and I was really, really looking forward to seeing it so I rented it the night it came out. Clint Eastwood has a real skill at taking an interesting subject and then really making boring. Hollywood really kisses his rear too, can't figure that one out. Some of the fighting was shot well, but I think the movie could have been half as long and it would have helped. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billkay Posted March 22, 2007 Report Share Posted March 22, 2007 Re: Flags of our Fathers (The Movie) Great movie. I have to disagree with Muggs. I thought some of the intricacies and layers that Clint wove into the movie made it a better piece. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chrud Posted March 22, 2007 Report Share Posted March 22, 2007 Re: Flags of our Fathers (The Movie) The author of the book (Bradley) is from Antigo, Wisconsin. I remember the night when it "world premiered" in Antigo. It was neat having the premier here, all kinds of fancy lights and what not. Haven't seen it yet, but will probably buy it before too long.
