We had Saving Private Ryan's opening beach scene. We had Hurt Locker's slow motion IED scenes. We had Margot Robbie nude in Wolf of Wall Street. They are all about to become bull and void. In Martin Scorsese's directorial debut, we follow teenagers playing the greatest sport of all time- shooting each other with frozen paint.
Many people never return from the battlefield . You can take the soldier out of the war. But you can't take the war out of the soldier. In this epic tale of friendship, relationships, war, trauma, PTSD, politic, corruption of the masses and the meaning of life itself.
After my first viewing of this masterpiece I was in disbelief and struggled with alcohol dependency after being unable to grasp the eye opening experience set upon me from this film.
Be wary, this film is not for children. Cold blooded murder is around every corner, and just like in real life, no one is safe from the war inside us all.
