COOLEST CLINT
Review date: 2008-07-18 Rating: 10 out of 10
This is a must-see. Although I usually wouldn't watch army films, I made a big exception because of Eastwood - and was pleasantly surprised. A very funny due to Eastwood's wonderfully dry humor!

NICE ONE CLINTReview date: 2007-09-26 Rating: 10 out of 10Clint Eastwood at his very best and playing grizzled US Army veteran Gunny Highway. Highway is assigned a reconnaissance platoon of U.S Marines, who are lazy, undisciplined and scruffy and has to litterally kick their backsides into a proper, professional unit.
The unit are sent to Grenada, as US Marines rescue U.S students from communist baddies. A great film from start to finish.Very GoodReview date: 2007-07-18 Rating: 10 out of 10Heartbreak Ridge is a very enjoyable film and a good way to spend a couple of hours. It is a Clint Eastwood film so you know pretty much what to expect but it is very well scripted and acted. All in all a very good film.Essence of Clint EastwoodReview date: 2004-07-05 Rating: 8 out of 10I grew up on Eastwood movies from his Cowboy era to Dirty Harry and beyond. I have to say this movie is as good in its way as any of the previous. The story has been told many times over of a rough tough unconventional leader shaping up a rag tag misfit group into a cohesive force to be reckoned with. Many times using unconventional or vary conventional ways. Not only in the military field but also many other fields. So it is more the delivery than the story that one would want to watch this movie for.
Marine sergeant (Clint Eastwood) facing retirement and trying to cope with a failed marriage and ex wife is tasked with turning a rag tag bunch of individuals into marines. He is hampered by self glorification self credit seeking people on all sides. If he fails many will die. So will he succeed and if so at what cost?
SuedeReview date: 2003-05-20 Rating: 10 out of 10yes probably the most enduring memory I have of this movie is when the platoon all chant Suede and the big guy comes in to fight Clint. Of course he gets his ass handed to him but at least he tried. a very good film, which is very eay to watch and is rewatchable.
I reccomend it (there is no higher accolade)
