I knew I held off watching Jarhead for a reason. I didn't see it in the theaters and I have not ordered it on pay per view. I would rather sit and listen to real veterans talk about their experiences than watch some candy-assed actor try to portray them in movies where they cannot possibly do justice to the sacrifice that our veterans have given.

I saw it. My 10 year old grandson who respects the military wants badly to see it.

I refuse to allow it because I think it was a movie that portrayed our Marines in the worse possible light. Jamie Foxx stands out in it but it's pure acting...he's just a tremendous actor and is like a gem in almost anything he's in. But the way that movie portrayed our Marines was a disgrace.

Hollywood at it's worst.
