Customer Reviews of Heartbreak Ridge (Spanish)
Opinions are Like Onions Just about everyone has one, and some of them stink so bad it'll make you cry. 'Heartbreak Ridge' is classic Eastwood - gritty, no-nonsense, but with a crude wit and acidic charm that keeps you in your seat. If you downplay the over-the-top acting, this movie gives you a good idea of what the 1980's Marine Corps was like for a leatherneck stuck at Camp Lejeune. And even though the recon barracks weren't in quonset hutts (they were in brick buildings out at Onslow Beach - which are now debris in the water), the low-cost family housing Aponte lived in is still up at Midway Park, the suburbia residence of Aggie can still be seen in Northwoods, and Marines still like to get rowdy at local bars. Oh, one thing has changed - "Heartbreak Ridge" is no longer considered contraband aboard Camp Lejeune, Camp Gieger, Camp Johnson, MCAS New River, or at Stone Bay.
Great Classic
Great Classic that is a wonderful addition to any military collection. I bought this for a gift to my father who is a is very patriotic at heart and is just fascinated with the U.S. military.
Not realistic, but so what?
OK, anybody who has spent 10 minutes in the Marines (or even the Army) will realize that this movie is laughably unrealistic. So what? It's a great story. Sure, the scenario of the tough sergeant and the young soldiers been told a hundred times before, but it's a classic theme that Clint Eastwood does a great job with. It's full of great lines. I still use Eastwood's maxim, "Improvise, Adapt, Overcome" with my kids. Mario Van Peebles is excellent as the reluctant Marine, rock singer wannabe, who provides a terrific comedic foil for Eastwood. Pretty corny throughout, but still fun to watch. Not for kids, though. The intense profanity is the one thing in this film that's realistic.
