DVD Review: "JARHEAD" Score C

Jarhead is more of a letter of recognition to the unsung soldiers of recent who went to war in Iraq but nothing really happened for them and never really did much but it took its toll on them none the less. There are some nice acting sequences and a couple of visually neat shots (like burning oil fields raining black gold). In the end though I found this one to be rather boring. Well acted but slow moving and seemed like more of a script written by a soldier who was bored off his rocker when he served over there. I know that there was supposed to be a message in this but I think that it was lost on me and perhaps on the majority of audiences that saw or will see this film.
