We Were Soldiers [HD DVD] Summary The Year Is 1965 And America Is At War With North Vietnam. Commanding The Air Cavalry Is Lt. Col. Hal Moore (gibson), A Born Leader Committed To His Troops. His Target: The La Drang Valley, Called "the Valley Of Death." As Moore Prepares For One Of The Most Violent Battles In U.s. History, He Delivers A Stirring Promise To His Soldiers And Their Families: "i Will Leave No Man Behind...dead Or Alive. We Will All Come Home Together."

Based on the book by Lt. Col. Harold Moore (ret.) and journalist Joseph Galloway, We Were Soldiers offers a dignified reminder that the Vietnam War yielded its own crop of American heroes. Departing from Hollywood's typically cynical treatment of the war, writer-director Randall Wallace focuses on the first engagement of American soldiers with the North Vietnamese enemy in November 1965. Moore (played with colorful nuance by Mel Gibson) and nearly 400 inexperienced troopers from the U.S. Air Cavalry were surrounded by 2,000 North Vietnamese Army soldiers, and the film re-creates this brutal firefight with graphic authenticity, while telling the parallel story of grieving army wives back home. While UPI reporter Galloway (Barry Pepper) risks his life to chronicle the battle, Wallace offers a balanced (though somewhat fictionalized) perspective while eliciting laudable performances from an excellent cast. Like the best World War II dramas of the 1940s, We Were Soldiers pays tribute to brave men while avoiding the pitfalls of propaganda. --Jeff Shannon
