[King of Snake]

ok just watched Flags of Our Fathers. It was ok, but Letters from Iwo Jima was definitely better.
Some great-looking action sequences though, especially the bits where you're looking from the cockpit of the fighter planes. But the story and characters didn't really do it for me.

I also remembered I had this documentary called Attack on Japan on dvd, which is actually about the battle of Iwo Jima. It's actually sometimes hard to watch, compared to the movies, cause you know that the images you're seeing are actually real. (although most of the docu also features reenacted scenes)
