  Zola's great novel or "Z," the classic film of Costa-Gavras, or Kubrick's "Paths of Glory."
  Turtles certainly is of this caliber.
  Nothing can prepare one for this film's emotional impact.
  It makes most film seem unimportant, vacant, self-centered, vain, empty.
  This is art that scares you with its power, that hits like events in your life, that makes you reconsider your own path in life.

  It really is very good, in my opinion.
  The way they survive by their wits, waiting for the US army to arrive like John Wayne and the 7th cavalry only to be invisible to them is very provocative. And I don't mean that in any anti-American sense at all.
