I liked it. It was based on the Viet Nam war, but wasn't a war movie. It was just about Christian's character.

I posted a review a while ago about it.

"I am not a person who likes war movies. I don't search them out. Frankly, the only reason I heard of this movie was because of Christian Bale. Would I have watched it if he hadn't been in it, probably not (depending on who the other actor was), but I doubt the movie would be as powerful without Christian. I was glued to the screen the whole time, and it's just over 2 hours.

The movie itself is about Dieter Dengler, a German-American pilot captured during the Viet Nam War, and his escape.

There are a few slightly gross parts which may bother some people, but the movie is rated US PG-13, so nothing very graphic.

So if you get a chance, I would definitely recommend seeing this. :)"
