Re: Flags of our fathers
What exactly did the Japanese do to Iggy? I thought the director copped out there. Because had you had seen what the japanese had done to poor Iggy, there would have been no way to sympathize with them, or to see that war as a bad thing. All in all, the movie was too touchy feely, too feel good towards the Japanese. Visually, the movie was quite good, it really captured the hell the war in the pacific really was.
