Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Politics?
I remember watching this film when it first came out about 20 years ago.

It proves people become heroes from their circumstances and abilities to hold true to beliefs of ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Hope never dies
If you liked Uncommon Valor, you'll like this one better.
Jane Fonda should have been in this film. (In her Barbarella attire). Shame Jane Shame.
