About this product

Product Information

In PLATOON, Oliver Stone draws on his experience as an infantryman in Vietnam to convey the brutality of guerrilla warfare: the heat of the jungle, the brushes with such wildlife as snakes and leeches, and, most powerfully, the presence of the unseen enemy. Charlie Sheen stars as Chris, a raw recruit, or "new meat," who serves as the film's narrator. At first he wilts under the rigorous conditions of jungle life, freezes up in a fire fight, and wonders whether he'll be able to survive. But he gradually adapts and, as time goes by, begins to see that the platoon is divided into two groups. One consists of lifers, juicers, and subintelligent whites, the other of blacks and heads. Sgt. Barnes, a combat-loving burnout (Tom Berenger), is the informal leader of the lifers, and Sgt. Elias, a free spirit (Willem Dafoe), leads the latter group. When the platoon takes some gruesome losses, an enraged Barnes kills some Vietnamese and orders the burning of their village, outraging the temporarily absent Elias. As the conflict between these two reaches its tragic climax, Chris must decide what he really values. Widely regarded as one of the finest war films ever made, PLATOON reflects not only the United States' division over Vietnam but the timeless truths of battle: terror, disorientation, exhilaration, and horrible loss.

  • Top critical review

    I would not print what I'd like to say, but I'm sure that the person who wrote the title would.

    This movie is a terrible representation of the American soldier. Sure, there was a head case here and there, but on the whole, the men and women were a very committed, well trained and well organized group who did NOT deserve to be shown as this movie has done. I do not recommend this movie.

  • Undeniably Stones Most Great Achievements In Film.

    You probably may be wishing to learn about the sacrifice and pain that others have gone through in the name of freedom. This movie will put many things into perspective about the time honored truths about the futility of war and how it has shaped so many lives. Oliver Stone was the director of this film. However, you may not have known that Oliver Stone actually served our country in Vietnam. Not only that, but received a Bronze Star and a Purple Heart during his tours of duty. How best to honor the fallen men, women, children, and MIAs and POWs of this great conflict. Oliver Stone wanted to make a film that embodied the undeniable irony of the total futility of this war through the eyes of Chris (Charlie Sheen). In doing so, he captured the pure essence of innocence turned ...

  • Give me a break!!!!

    This is yet another piece of Oliver Stone garbage that was produced with nothing more than a political slant. I got up and walked out of the theatre when this movie first came out and a week later, the base commander banned this piece of garbage from being played at the base theatre. Anyone who thought that this movie was great and portrayed Vietnam, needs to talk with a veteran of the conflict and then apologize for being brainwashed by Stone. This movie made it appear that everyone in Vietnam was raping women, killing children, using drugs and never left the field. Oliver Stone took every last possible stereotype of the conflict and made it happen in one movie. This is a discredit to our military and once again spits in the face of every soldier that ever served during Vietnam. If ...

  • classic war drama

    i asked myself is this the best vietnam war movie? there is definetly none better. it brings out everything. not only the kill or be killed rule of warfare but also all the rain, the bugs, the lack of sleep, the inner conflict caused by troops on your side. and, perhaps above all else the terrible suffering of civilians in the wrong place at the wrong time. even in ww2, the bloodiest war of all time, there were more civilian deaths than military .
