A movie I have searched for , for a long time.
Having been born in 1968, the year of the tet offensive, I have only second and third hand imformation from books, movies, and anecdotes, concerning that time in history. So, it is from that perspective I review this movie. This story takes place during the Tet offensive, in which a small American firebase is forced to defend itself against overwhelming odds. The only hope for this base is a battle hardened seargent, who takes control of the situation and becomes the young soldiers only hope for survival. This movie is in my opinion the most realistic war film, prior to "Saving Private Ryan" and holds the top spot along with "Hamburger Hill" as the best of the Vietnam war movies. Forget "Apocalypse Now" this is the movie that tells the Vietnam experience. Buy it you will not regret it.

I'm not a soldier, but I REALLY enjoyed this movie
I can't really comment on it's authenticity, but I enjoyed this movie more than most Vietnam era equivalents. Wings Hauser is very good in his role, but I can't say enough GREAT things about R. Lee Ermy in this movie. His voiceovers about the situations faced by he and his troops, as well as his acting and actions are top notch. This movie is visually powerful, and yet manages to tow a fine line between history, and entertainment. As well, it takes a suprisingly neutral stance on the Vietnamese themselves, giving you things to ponder as you watch it, making you wonder if you would behave any different if your country were being 'invaded'. It pays its respects to the compatants on BOTH sides, and isn't just another one of your typical American flag waving propaganda war films. This movie deserves to be seen by a wider audience, it is a keeper.

Brilliant
I have just watched this film and I thought that it was the best Vietnam War film I have evey seen. After watching Full Metal Jacket, Platoon and Hamburger Hill I find 'Siege of Fire Base Gloria' refreshing and hard hitting. War at the best of times is harrowing and usless but this film brought home the comradeship and closeness one finds in the services and during times of conflict. It was well directed and very well acted and showed a true representation of war you would not find other wise by actually being there. Its a shame you only have five stars because this film and its actors deservse 10+

HA HA HA !!!
This is defintely a B-grade movie when a company of VC with AK-47's and a squad of GIs with M-16's stand 10 paces away in full view of eachother during broad daylight, then fire away on full automatic for minutes on end.
Probally the highest body count of any movie ever made!
Rambo, eat your heart out!!

excellent movie
This has got to be the best movie & the most realistic on Vietnam ever made. ... Read more

boring with a capital B
ok, we got the dumb original's plot, now we get the dumb sequels plot. this one has a supersoaker slinging nun, which is pretty funny if dumb and the huge snake turning thing at the end is cheesy, plus with the lipstick in the final shot is uproarous. good ideas fellas

Horrible
I saw the first one a long time ago and it was excellent. Sometime later I found the second one and thought 'Hey cool' ha what a joke. After watching that I wanted to cry, it had made a complete mockery of the first one and although I did like a couple parts, mostly it ... . The house in the beginning was ... because instead of a wall they had a picket fence! Man if there was a picket fence the first one would have had just a few less casualties. Anyway, if you liked the first one don't bother seeing it, it's not the kind of thing I'd want to submit really anyone to. Well, hope I was helpful.

The best movie since well forever.....
This is oneof my all time fav. movies actually my 2nd my first is THE ROCKY HORROR PICTURE(25 ANV. EDITION) Well for about 8 years i could not remember the name of this movie so i could not find it any where but one day i went searching for it on AMAZON and i read the reviews and i was so happy that i found it i bought it right away. My fav. part is the lipstick part. whos isnt... and angelia looks way better in his movie than in the first movie. I know a lot of people dont think this movie was as good as the first but i would have to say that they are rong this movie is better than the first it has more going on and is made better. It just is and will always be one of my favriots. There is no betting a classic and this is a classic in its own way.. ... Read more

Sometimes a B movie can rise above its big-budget brethren. The Siege of Firebase Gloria is a lean, straightforward film about a troupe of Marines defending an isolated outpost in Vietnam. While on reconnaissance, Sergeant-Major Hafner (R. Lee Ermey) gets a glimmering of the impending Tet offensive when he comes across a massacred village. When the patrol arrives at Firebase Gloria, Hafner takes command from the addled commanding officer and desperately tries to prepare the disorganized base for the coming assault. There's nothing remarkable about the story--this is a war movie--but it's not only told with efficient skill, it's strikingly clear-eyed about the brutalities committed by both sides of the war. The Viet Cong are depicted with as much sympathy as the Americans; in fact, through smart juxtapositions, the perspective of the native soldiers becomes increasingly clear and compelling, even though their dialogue is never translated. With clearly drawn yet realistic characters, a decent script, and unfancy but effective camerawork, Firebase Gloria paints a more vivid and unsettling portrait of the Vietnam experience than far more high-minded movies like Full Metal Jacket. Ermey gives a grounded, genuine performance, and straight-to-video star Wings Hauser is both scary and sad as a ruthless, alienated corporal. --Bret Fetzer ... Read more

My Favorite Movie In The Whole World!
First off let me say this, I'm black and I have never been offended by Soul Man though a lot of people have. I know when the film came out there were protesters and a lot of media hassles because some felt it was racist. It wasn't racist or offensive to me and Soul Man has always been my favorite movie. I thought it was funny and I would love to see it re-done these days. I believe it would be even funnier. I don't believe the filmmakers put black people down by having C. Thomas Howell pretend to be black. Sure he said some ignorant things and the film made references to how black people talk and act, but it was harmless and only to prove a point. People know no one acts as dumb as he did, being black or white. I never understood why some people cause trouble where there is none. This is a good, wholesome movie. I'm a lot more offended by the trash that's in the movie these days than anything I saw in Soul Man. I loved the movie and developed a huge crush on C. Thomas Howell when I was a kid because of this film. And I thought he looked great black! I wish his future roles had been so entertaining. This is his best work. The basketball scene and " Shaft " scene are my favorites. I wished they would have done a scene with Mark and Sara going to a danceclub. That would have been hilarious and fun to see how he handled things.

If you like good clean fun, this is for you! The ultimate buddy movie and one of the best date movies ever. No matter what year it is.

Nice!
I think the goal here is to focus on the love story. Rae Dawn Chong and C. Thomas Howell really do have a lot of chemistry if you just pay attention. Watch their eye contact and those nice little smiles! Of course the actual idea of someone pretending to be black is a little over the top...but at least he seemed to learn something valuable towards the end. They are cute together in the movie. Unfortunately, there are some who can't appreciate the fact that underneath it all, physically we all pretty much contain the same organs. African American people are rich in culture and heritage and hopefully one day, we can see the movie for what it is, a comedy. Look at the love, that's what really made me keep watching. They were just really cute and I guess I am kind of a romantic, so I would have liked to see more of them together!

Give it a chance - you just might surprise yourself and laugh a little, enjoy it! Incidentally, James Earl Jones is wonderful as the Professor!

The best movie in my life.
Hi,
Soul Man is one of those movies that make me feel so good with the world. Someone said that this movie was a racist one but, after so long time, I can say that it was the best way to show how the integration between races is so much well described in this great movie. Yes, maybe it wasnt a super billionar movie but with its simplicity and fresh way to see the world, it is the movie that must be in a home movie collection !
I'm a white and I'm so proud of the blacks and maybe this movie made more than the same blacks think.
Thanks Soul Man.

Funny 80's movie
This is a movie everyone has to see. C. Thomas Howell is a great actor. Talk about funny. I laugh harder each and every time I watch this movie. This movie not only is funny but it really points how some people view other cultures, cultures that they just don't understand. It combines humor with sad but true sterotypes that people of the world still believe to this day.

Better than I expected.
I just recently watched this movie for the first time. It's the first C. Thomas Howell movie I enjoyed since "Side Out." I listened to all the negative remarks about this movie made by Spike Lee and other people, so I just never had the urge to watch it. But now that I've seen it myself, I'm glad I took the time, because I really enjoyed it. Sure, C. Thomas Howell doesn't come close to looking Afro-American... he barely even touches on warmed-over Puerto Rican. However, if you just accept it as a plot device, the movie works very well.

Kind of a comic reworking of "Black Like Me", "Soul Man" tells the story of Mark Watson, a young upper-class white guy who's kinda narrow-minded and smarmy. He and his friend (played with great comedic timing by Arye Gross) are both accepted to Harvard Law. Mark's father, under the influence of his progeny-hating psychiatrist, refuses to pay his tuition--opting instead to use Mark's college money to buy a condo in Barbados. So Mark is forced to find a way to pay his tuition on his own. Unable to get a loan from his bank, he tries to ferret out available scholarships. He comes across a scholarship program that would fit his needs perfectly. The only hitch? It's the Henry Brouchard scholarship program for qualified black students. So, with the help of some tanning pills and an Afro, Mark is on his way to Harvard Law School. The rest of the movie is about his experiences as a "black" man, and the lessons he learns to apply as a "white" one. He experiences racism and discrimination on the opposite side of the spectrum for the first time.

My own particular favorite scene is the dinner scene when Mark is invited over to dinner with a white family. Each member of the family sees him as a different stereotype... the young son sees him as a music star, the mother sees him as a "Mandingo"-type character, and the racist father (played nicely by Leslie Nielsen in one of his last non-comedic roles) sees him as a jive-talking pimp who's corrupted his daughter. A very efficient (and clever) way to get the point across.

The cast and crew did a nice job of using comedy to broach a very touchy subject. However, don't think it's a perfect satire or anything. The last 10 minutes or so are just a little too cookie-cutter Hollywood, and some parts of the script and finished movie seem poorly constructed. Also, C. Thomas Howell did a fairly good job for having had to lead the cast, but "Soul Man" probably would've been even better if Tim Robbins played Mark, as was the original intention.

Overall, an underrated movie that packages serious subject matter into alternately deft and puerile comedy, and that deserves more attention than it gets. **** ... Read more
