Review by irishboy141

This episode was both suffocating and extremely dark, almost too much. The violence itself isn't that gory or over the top, quite the opposite, It's down & dirty & pretty realistic. The fact that the director was a Vietnam Veteran puts the episode into context, because this whole episode feels like it could've been plucked right out of the war.

The episode & ending battle is almost too much, too intense, too hopeless. Which is precisely why it works. The horrors of war spares no one when you're in the fray, be it your mind, body, or soul, a least one piece of them will be left on the battlefield.
