Went to see Windtalkers saturday night. It's the first movie i've seen at the theater since The Perfect Storm... and that was the first movie i'd seen in years... so that makes two in about ten years.
Well the general storyline of the movie was good, Nick Cage i always enjoy watching and i like war movies but OMG i can't take over two hours of killing and gore and blood and guts anymore. On average it felt like ten guys died every 5 seconds... well dead wouldn't have been so bad but bits and pieces were flying off guys all over the place... it was too much. I know that's what real war is about but the guys that come back from those things are f*cked up enough... i don't need to know exactly why they are f*cked up and go experience it for myself.
I have no idea if it's because i've seen enough of that kinda thing working as a nurse or i'm just getting old and i've hit my human suffering blood and guts limit or what... but sitting and watching that stuff makes me want to sit and cry... and i don't mean normal at a sad movie crying... i mean i wanna sit there and cry my eyes out for every human being that had to go fight a war, for every guy that had to watch bits of their friends being blown off, for every one that died fighting and for every human being that had to come back after going thru all that sh*t.
I guess the thing that gets to me is knowing this all really happened... someone really went thru all that... lots of people really went thru all that.
