We tried. We really tried. But after 20 minutes it proved painfully dull. The characters were terribly uninteresting, and there wasn't even a hint of an engaging story. If I went to the theater and paid for it, I suppose I'd stick around, but as I was at home, I gave up.

Even at the theater, walk out. Demand your money back.

That's what I did with " Born on the Fourth of July"
Don't get me wrong. It's a powerful well made movie. But I go to the movies to be entertained. Not disturbed, and that movie is highly disturbing.

Had some entertaining moments but how in the world was this in Oscar conversations let alone winning best picture?
