Filmed along the conventions of a World War II action drama, a gung-ho colonel battles the vicious Viet Cong while protecting innocent civilians, befriending an orphaned boy, and reforming a liberal newspaperman's misguided political views.

Reviews for The Green Berets
If you liked this film, you're probably also thrilled with W's Iraqi war.
Despised by liberals in its day, The Green Berets isn't nearly as bad as its reputation.
When I first saw this at an NCO club during the Vietnam War, Army vets laughed and catcalled throughout the film because of the preposterous dialogue and action sequences.
