    I finally understand those porcine white boys who claim to follow the Bushido code or whatever.
    Really dodged a bullet by not watching this when I was like 13 cos this movie would 100% have made me one of their number

    Guys I'm starting to think this whole Vietnam war thing was maybe a bad idea

    this was more about the place Vietnam held in the diseased American psyche rather than about the actual war itself and therefor falls into the meme about how Americans not only kill your people but will make movies about how killing your people made their soldiers feel sad.
    Still compelling in its own way

    Props to my dad's weird racist friend for telling me to watch this when I was like 13

    The Party

    Criminally bad, stilted dialogue. Is like the writer has never heard a conversation between real human beings
