The war genre, vigorously energized with Saving Private Ryan and Black Hawk Down, takes several steps backward with this old-fashioned moralistic saga, a tribute not only to the soldiers in combat in Vietnam but also to the homefront.

The Vietnam setting looks authentic enough, but the action is as inert and unpersuasive as Gibson's attempt to fashion Bill Mauldin poetry out of his $20-million-plus smirk.

By comparison, Oliver Stone's Platoon plays like the experience of a sensibly outraged man worthy of our sympathy.

Makes you cry for the hundreds of thousands of men and women who died so pointlessly with Geoghegan. And their orphans.

As I settled into my World War II memories, I found myself strangely moved by even the corniest and most hackneyed contrivances.
