Re: Rescue Dawn
completely let down by this film. if we didn't know it was Herzog, we'd file it away as a fully competent, unremarkable by-the-numbers war film. i realize that you just can't escape certain types of subject matter in a film like this (especially one based on a true story), but i also found myself apathetic to the things he/they were going through. the climactic rescue somehow felt like an anticlimax. i failed to see any point in this film, other than to show us a string of facts.
Christian Bale was great as always.
