> He was a professional assassin, get it?
He was a professional assassin but now wrecked with guilt, cynicism, introspection and fatique. He started to question the cause, who were the real murderers? maybe Kurtz was the sanest of them all. The portrayal of the resultant conflicted self may come across as wimpy ('unsure' = 'wimpy'), but I didn't get that impression.
Speaking of snipers, I also liked Richard Farnsworth's reminiscing with regret in The Straight Story.

I wasn't clear (and apologies to Auricle for - tinear 15:07:16 05/26/05 (0)
over-reacting) but I mean Sheen doesn't have the gravitas to play the part. Period. Hell, Jim Carrey could play it for the same reasons many here mentioned but he'd still be wimpy Jim.
