I liked this one pretty well, and have watched it several times. I thought it was no less realistic than Platoon, (like in Platoon you can actually see all the blanks they're feeding the guns), and has a clamactic battle at the end. You don't get as deep into the characters (like in Platoon Chris narrates in a letter to Grandma), but you have plenty of conflict and taking sides and stress and such. It's too bad it's not currentlyavailable to rent from Total Access.
