          Well, It's more like watching a movie and building it up and expecting something to happen?

          the movie Lacks, A thicker Plot,a Climax and well the ending wasn't there at ALL

            Often times I wonder why
            There's love and hate, theres live or die.

            When feelings go, theres suicide.

                That sucks, to many movies ruined by not thinking through a proper ending.

                Oh well, worth seeing on DVD?

                    The movie was about "Marines" He goes though basic then next thing you know he goes to Desert Sheild/Storm He shows that he can "shoot" Then he gets to join an regular squad and he and a friend are team sniper.

                    He didn't even get a chance to shoot anyone the WAR Is over. And he goes home to find out his g/f was with another man.

                    The point of the movie is what marines go though.

                        A few jokes about oil and $.

                        But for a WAR movie it was Netural at best

                                  It was getting very mediocre reviews in the screenings. started with like a 15% at rotten tomatoes. Its gone up to 55% now though

                                      At MetaCritic it only got a 58%. That equals Mixed or Average Reviews. Have you all seen THREE KINGS? That's another movie about Desert Storm. It was actually a made up story and not based on a Marine's experience which JARHEAD is I believe.

                                        I agree.. Jarhead was lame. I got some preview passes through a friend and went on Wednesday.

                                        I had high hopes but it was just boring. I guess they were trying to make a point or something.. but I don't go to see a war movie for the main character to never shoot his gun.

                                        Also it seemed kind of long.
