Fathers. Brothers. Husbands & Sons.
Mel Gibson and Randall Wallace, the star and writer of Braveheart, reunite for this action packed war movie that features explosive battle sequences, thrilling aerial photography and unforgettable military heroes who fought for their country, their loved ones and their freedom.
The year is 1965 and America is at war with North Vietnam. Commanding the air cavalry is Lt. Col Hal Moore (Gibson), a born leader committed to his troops. His target: the la Drang Valley, called "The Valley of Death." As Moore prepares for one of the most violent battles in U.S. history, he delivers a strong promise to his soldiers and their families: "I will leave no man behind... dead or alive. We will all come home together."
This heroic story of commitment, courage and sacrifice also stars Madeline Stowe, Greg Kinnear, Sam Elliott, Chris Klein, Keri Russell and Barry Pepper.

Excellent movie - 4 out of 5 (8/12/2002)
WE WERE SOLDIERS is yet another film in a seemingly endless onslaught of
films about the horrors of war.
Yet, the film still manages to rise above its other brethren because of the
things it does right. Like BLACKHAWK DOWN, this film was filmed in the
ultra-realistic style that came from SAVING PRIVATE RYAN, but unlike
BLACKHAWK DOWN, this film also takes a deeper look at the characters in the
film and that makes a difference in terms of what the audience is seeing.

Not since "The Boys in Company C" has a Story about the true "Viet Nam " been made! - 4.75 out of 5 (9/3/2002)
Alot of Movies about Viet Nam have been made but most were "Hollywood" as someone else wanted to buff it up! This is the real story of Viet Nam of soliders who Kicked some butt and didn't worry about taking names! There were a few Leaders in Nam and this is the story of one who cared! This movie was just too dam short! A Puppy Pusher!
