neutral · AI labelView post →I did enjoy Danger Close, a well made big budget spectacle. Another excellent war film was Beneath Hill 60. I’m going to have to revisit both of those soon as it’s been a little while
positive · AI labelView post →There is also a more recent movie 'Danger Close,' which tells the story of The Battle of Long Tan in Vietnam.
neutral · AI labelView post →The Battle of Long Tan is a great book. I think I read it after watching The Odd Angry Shot. I had the 1990 UK paperback...not sure where it is now! I didn't really like the film Danger Close - can't remember why. Probably coz it didn't have Bryan Brown in it😂
negative · AI labelView post →My late father spoke highly of the Australian soldiers he met in Vietnam. He said they were the nicest people he met over there. Who knew those same men would later face an ordeal depicted in the film Danger Close. youtu.be/OIUk4bA9tjM?...

neutral · AI labelView post →I remember when I was a child his story about meeting the small Australian brigade sent to Vietnam as being the nicest people he had met during the war. Little did he know those same men would come under attack at Long Tan a month later that became a movie Danger Close.
neutral · AI labelView post →I highly recommend Danger Close: The Battle of Long Tan if you guys ever want a good Vietnam movie. It’s seriously one of the finest movies ever made in my opinion.
positive · AI labelView post →I don't at all dislike War films, but they're also not of a genre that is particularly close to my heart.

Final rating:★★½ - Had a lot that appealed to me, didn’t quite…
