the thin red line

We watched this movie last evening. All evening. It was 3 hours long. I did not realize that when I rented it or I might have passed. I do like a good war movie, but this one was just not up my alley. Besides being too long it had too many characters to follow and did not have enough of a plot. The other thing I did not like about it was the obvious stunt casting. It had people like John Travolta and George Clooney, who each appeared for one scene a piece. There were quite a lot of other stars in it that were in the whole movie, so I’m not sure why they did that with those guys. One positive to note, it was visually pleasing. A lot of nice camera work. But, I can’t recommend it.
