Set during the Vietnam war, Robin Williams arrives in country to host a radio show on Armed Forces Radio. His style as a DJ is a hit with the troops who listen to his show, including the General. Robin Williams is as entertaining as ever, in one of his best film roles. A very enjoyable movie & a reminder of this late actors talent.

After a recent trip to what was Saigon I wanted to watch this film again. Buying it was cheaper than renting so an obvious choice and I have already lent the disk to friends. The film is very funny at times but also has moments of real pathos. After seeing what the USA had done in Vietnam this brought back to me a lighter side without demeaning the real horror of the damage to the country & people. For me, all that ‘police action’ was not very long ago but it is very much a reality still in Saigon and the delta.

Although based on an actual person, Robin Wilkiams comedy style glows through. Masterful and talented performance by a comedy legend and the music of the period adds greater memory and pleasure to what was a difficult time for American troops in Vietnam
