awesome movie saw it first day it came out worth every penny jamie foxx was inspiring in this epic movie that shows the "true" purpose of war. I quote from George W. Bush " the war is over."
A very slow and long movie. First movie I`ve ever walked out on.
If Jake Gyllenhaal was`nt sooo damn hot, there would be no point in seeing this movie. Jamie Foxx was great................ in Ray sorry Jamie.
JAMIE FOXX WAS GREAT..........SOME GOOD PARTS IN THE MOVIE BUT OVERALL IT WAS OVERATED..JUST ANOTHER WAR MOVIE!
I really don`t think that many of you who bashed the movie got the point. This is not an action movie. If you sat though the movie and didn`t understand it then you`re not that bright to begin with. I agree that it is not the most entertaining movie action-wise, but if you want to see really good acting, and really good story-telling, then Jarhead is a must-see. This is truely one of the BEST movies this year.
Great movie...I loved it.
I love this movie, and jake he is my hero i have seen like 7 war movies in the last month adn this by far the best
An alright concept; may have well portrayed a war zone, pre conflict. All in all it was a rather deep two hour army enrolment film. Slightly racist, but hardly. Fairly entertaining, but only if you can see past the propaganda BS.
There are not many movies I walk out of, but I did for this one. Young immature males acting as what else...young immature males. It may have reflected what a war zone is like a lot of the time, but from a movie going point of view it was tedious and difficult to watch.
As someone who served in the Marines in the Gulf War, I found the move very accurate. The war WAS boring (for the most part). If you were expecting Platoon or Rambo, too bad. The movie was about how Marines went through that particular was and it wasn`t Vietnam or WWII. I give the movie 4 stars aout of 5.
