This film is just as good as the Deer Hunter and Apocalypse now as far as Vietnam films are concerned. The acting is first rate, as is Ashby's direction, as always. The world would be a better place if more people had watched this film, i cant understand how forgotten its become!
Another returning vet movie (returning theme). Jane Fonda was excellent especially in the late 60's and here through the 70's. A great performance by a young Jon Voigt too. And I was surprised but impressed to see Robert Carradine. I prefer this movie over The Deer Hunter.
Very good film with strong performances by Fonda and Voight. Killer soundtrack too.
JON VOIGHT ROLE AND JANE FONDA GIVE THER BEST PERFORMENCE EVER IN THERE LIFE AND THE STORY WAS THE BEST
I will NOT see a Movie that has this Commie, Traitor, BITCH in it.
They don't have a LOW enough rating for her.
She can rot in the Hanoi Hilton, for what she did to Our troops during Vietnam.
BURN BITCH, BURN
I had never even heard of this when I saw it so I had no expectations, but I was pleasantly surprised. Jon Voigt was fantastic and I actually appreciated (for once) that ambiguity of the ending.
Not so different from other Vietnam vet studies, but elevated by three quality performances, two unforgettable scenes, and one great song (The Rolling Stones' "Out of Time"). The rest of the songs seem slapped on, and are the film's biggest flaw.
I watched it when it first came out on Laser Disc. I thought it was good movie cause me to ask questions about my beliefs and thinking.
This board looks lonely. Be the first to talk about "Coming Home" !
