About this product

Product Information

The Vietnam War provided plenty of cinematic ruminations on the futility of battle and the struggle of returning soldiers to adjust to normal life. With HOME OF THE BRAVE director Irwin Winkler (THE NET) applies similar concepts to the Iraq War of the early 21st century, positing actors Samuel L. Jackson, Jessica Biel, Brian Presley, and 50 Cent (credited here under his real name, Curtis Jackson) in the roles of army recruits who tussle with the mundanity of life after war. The action begins during the heat of battle, with an ambush that leaves many of its victims either dead or wounded. Winkler subsequently transports the action to the struggles his characters endure once safely back home, with alcoholism, prosthetic limbs, parental abuse, and a hostage crisis all causing innumerable problems, none of which are helped by a military that remains uninterested in their frantic pleas for help and guidance.Winkler infuses his film with an equal mixture of anger and grief, and while he may not reach the heights of Oliver Stone's BORN ON THE FOURTH OF JULY or Michael Cimino's THE DEER HUNTER, he draws on similar frustrations felt by the characters in those movies. HOME OF THE BRAVE was shot while the violence still raged in Iraq, which will doubtless make it a fascinating curio in years to come, especially as this denied Winkler a distance from his subject that many of the filmmakers who masterfully dissected the Vietnam War undoubtedly benefited from.

  • Jessica's great

    This movie is about soldiers in the gulf War. It takes place in Spokane after a few good men (and Jessica Biel) return with post traumatic stress and other injuries that make life more difficult. Samuel L Jackson is another shining star with his performance. Though this movie is depressing at times, it really makes you appreciate the soldiers' everyday struggle with the past and present conditions of everyday life back home. Definitely worth seeing at least once, especially if you identify with the theme. Our brave soldiers are the ones who make our homeland secure. This is the side of the America soldiers' life that is often less portrayed, but certainly worth the consideration. Watch this one when you have a Jessica Biel comedy to follow it, make it a double feature. Otherwise maybe ...

  • Your Average American War Movie

    I decided to buy this movie because I really enjoy modern military stories and scenarios. It was a good movie with a pretty good story line, good actors and good military action in the beginning. It is however just your typical modern war story about the effects it has on the soldiers and how their every day lives are effected once they get home. I wish the whole military aspect of the movie would have been longer.
