Probably the best Vietnam movie out.

about the only yank war film i liked..11/10

Great movie. The acting was amazing. Pretty entertaining. If you like war movies you will like this. Worth a watch.

I would agree with bigguycancook's assessment. Platoon and Hamburger Hill were two excellent movies, not just among war movies but among any grouping of movies. 10/10 without a doubt.

i didn't knew that JOHNNY DEPP was there until i saw the movie!!:))

Platoon was my first introduction to wartime reality. I was just a kid when first viewing it and the film left a powerful impression on me. Platoon is one of those brutally realistic movies that, once seen, will never be forgotten and forever alter the way in which war is considered.

This and Hamburger Hill are the best Vietnam war movies ever made. Recommend.

This is definatly a must see War movie, a little slow at first but once the action kicks in it gets intense, amazing 9/10

Powerful and mesmerizing. It hasn't lost a bit of its impact. Dafoe was great. 10/10

One of the best nam movies out there a benchmark for some that followed. 8/10

Like no other movie could tell, Platoon shows us categorically that war... and especially the Vietnam War... is hell. A good Vietnam Film in It's category, but more importantly a great War Film overall. If you enjoyed Full Metal Jacket, you'll enjoy Platoon!

With an all star cast this movie just makes my list of top war movies!

one of the best war movies i've ever seen.10/10

The best Vietnam War flick ever. Acting is top notch. 5/5

interesting movie dont get me wrong it was good but theplot just seemed pointless. the whole platoon was psychotic i couldnt feel bad for any of them, half way thru i couldnt wait for them all to die. well everyone except william dafoe he kicked ass. 3/5

3/5 I really enjoyed Defoe and Mcginley in this movie.... I also love the music, Adagio for Strings by S. Barber .... It may be used alot, but I do believe this is the first movie that used it.

This is a modern day classic. Shocking and disturbing with loads of action 4/5

one of the best war drama movies out!! Its a classic now but well worth a watch.. Great storyline,, great cast..Lots of action drama.. This is a must see war movie.. Gave this movie 9/10.. ENJOY!!

one of the best war movies ever made

, One of my Fav's..........Great Movie, great Actors..................5/5

My heart goes out to you nightdriver. I lasted about 20 mins in the theatre and couldn't stay a moment longer. 1986 seems like such a long time ago now but I still haven't watched this movie. Somehow it just struck a nerve with me.

im not really into war films... but this 1 is old but i really like it 3/5

talk about flashbacks so real so close to the way it was probably wont be able to sleep for a while !!

Great war movie 4/5
