Movie Review: We Were Soldiers

I guess it's technically the 22nd.. so might as well post it here. It's 1:10am right now, and just finished watching the movie "We Were Soldiers" starting Mel Gibson. It's a sad/dramatic war movie about Vietnam.. the words/speech from Mel Gibson and the nararator were nice.. the war scenes were cliche.. like any other war movie. Lots of shooting, planes, helicopters.. etc. War movies are becoming a little boring now - because it's always the same plot [kill the viets]. Overall - if i was to rate this movie.. i'd give it a 6.5 out of 10 for trying. It wasn't a waste of money.. but i wouldn't watch it again.

Pae and I sat around the house most of the day (21st).. and had a nice family dinner with his parents. We talked a bunch about life and our future, and his dad was very encouraging and thoughtful. I also had a beer with him.. which was a little embarassing. After dinner - we headed out to Tapioca Express - and rented the movie i reviewed above. Now i'm off to bed.. tomorrow will be another boring day.
