"I was blown away by its delicacy, the poignancy of how he talks about war. I think it's also a searing condemnation of war. It was a unique view of the Japanese side of the battle. We don't always see that."

So what's new? A lot of great war movies have scenes/speeches that condemn war, war-weary soldiers griping about war, grieving soldiers, traumatized soldiers: Guns of Navarone, Patton, We Were Soldiers, Saving Private Ryan, Band of Brothers, etc. to name a few.

Yeah, I'm trying to think of that war movie where everyone is running around just LOVING the war. For some reason I'm drawing a blank. :)
