I saw this movie a long time ago and I must have said a silent prayer that I might forget Sand's unforgettable performance. My prayers were answered, because I just saw it again and had completely forgotten his ludicrous attempt to portray a tough guy Marine. I don't know if it was bad acting, over acting, comic relief or what,, but I found it almost impossible to watch. I always root for our side, but I couldn't wait for someone,,, from either side,,, to put a bullet in his head. I've seen better acting in high school plays. I was under the impression that actors were supposed to research/study the characters they were to portray; to pick up on mannerisms, speech patters, language and such. From what I saw, he must have spent his time watching Popeye cartoons. All in all, I thought the movie was pretty good, but I have to knock one full star off my rating because he was such an annoying distraction. I said another,,, the same one,,, silent prayer, and I hope it will once again be answered.
