I see it as a nearly perfect film. It’s more of a meditation on war, man,and nature than a traditional plot . It also is one of the most consistently reviled films on this board. It’s polarizing, it seems people love it or hate it. I love everything about it ( except for Travolta). I have also enjoyed all the leaks and write ups of TM’s nearly- insane direction.

It does seem to drag... also look at the wiki page and look at the list of actors whose scenes were completely cut out of the movie . Impressive ensemble cast .

The scene where nick nolte goes to the hill and curses them out is one of my favorite scenes
