Informative and thoughtful - a must see,

This review is from: AGENT ORANGE: THE LAST BATTLE (DVD)
For an independent filmmaker making his very first documentary it is indeed an amazing film. The film recounts the life of two Vietnam war veterans who are still coping with the after effects of Agent Orange.
There is a brief narration about Agent Orange and the various diseases it has caused to the people who served in Vietnam. For the most part you get to know first hand the 2 veterans who talk about their daily life and the struggles they have had to endure. By the end of the film it will make you very emotional and you will feel as if you know the veterans intimately. To that end the producers have achieved to create a film that is insightful and thoughtful. This film can also serve as an educational film for those who are not aware of the after effects of Agent Orange.

This review is from: AGENT ORANGE: THE LAST BATTLE (DVD)
This informative film could very well be a life saver for our Veterans, yet what resonates with me is the vulnerable and respectful approach it exhibits in regards to the humanity and dignity of these veterans. For instance, the film begins with a personal recounting of a humorous incident in Vietnam. It does not distract from the subject, but instead it establishes a bond with the subjects of the documentary.
Technically, the sound and visuals show some polish. I have seen independent films with distracting breaks and inconsistent sound levels - not the case here. The narration is also clear and serves its purpose. Most importantly, the message gets across without any hindrance from the technical side. This film could have been many things, but what I found was a candid interview with two Vietnam Vets who recount their daily struggle with multiple diseases. It takes a lot of grace to create a documentary about Agent Orange and the effects it has left on the American Veteran. I find this film to be informative, helpful, and respectful. This film does a great service to the Vietnam Vets dealing with the aftereffects of Agent Orange.

The Agent of War,

This review is from: AGENT ORANGE: THE LAST BATTLE (DVD)
This moving documentary is a dramatic reminder of the effects war can have, even when that war is long over. Vietnam was a conflict that changed many people's lives, but most significantly those who gallantly served the foreign policy of our Country many years ago in that far-off land. The reward for their bravery, courage, and dedication should not be the medical problems that are depicted in "Agent Orange: The Last Battle". The use of this hazardous substance as a tool of war was a clear mistake that has had long lasting effects not only on the people of Vietnam, but also on our own soldiers who were exposed to it. The soldiers interviewed in the documentary are indeed still fighting the battle, but this time within their own bodies. Is this fair? Is this just? It certainly doesn't seem so to those who have been afflicted and their family members. Yet, one must try to believe that God has a reason for bad things, even when they happen to good and honorable people.
