Most people I talked to think it's tremendous which goes to show it makes a dent in the average person's psyche. Mission accomplished for a war film whether it was technically perfect or accurate.
I still laud Apocalypse Now as THE film that conveys the ambiance and reality of VN without being the least bit accurate or true to history. Hurt Locker works in the same way.
