Review :
Reminds Me of Wayne's Other Movie - They Were Expendable
Although "They Were Expendable" is a better film overall, "Green Berets" is also quite good, and both movies have a lot in common.
- They show the enemy as the enemy - vicious killers.
- And they show Americans as being flawed, but good & brave.
- They were both made *during* the war.
- Which means the outcome was unknown - would we win or lose? - And
.
Given all that, with movies that are nearly identical to one another in plot & purpose (rally the homefront to support the war), it seems odd the Green Berets is so hated, while They Were Expendable is so loved.
Having just watched both movies back-to-back on TCM and AMC, via Memorial Day marathons, I don't see why one is loved & the other hated. I thought John Wayne did an excellent job in both movies, and that both movies should be considered classics.
Bottom Line: If you have a chance to see either of these two movies, don't hesitate to sit down & enjoy them. They're definitely worth your time.
