A companion piece to The Last Detail (written by Daniel Ponsican who co-scripted here) & directed by Richard Linklater details a trio of Vietnam vets escorting one of their sons home for burial who lost his life fighting in Iraq. Much like Detail, we get a sense of the lives lived since their wartime duty & how for some, things have moved forward while others are stuck in a perpetual cycle of pain & regret. A welcome vehicle for the 3 leads (Steve Carrell, Bryan Cranston & Laurence Fishburne) who perform w/the expertise & nuance you would expect. Another notch in Linklater's belt who at this point in his career seems unable to do no wrong.

Beautiful. Sad. Funny. Poignant. Everything you would hope for from such a movie with the brilliance of the three main actors and a cameo by the superb Cicely Tyson.

So Col Wilts hair is too long, his rank is not properly placed and his actions were totally something you don't see in an officer in today's Marine Corps. His actions towards the LCpl would have been more realistic if it has been a GySgt, 1stSgt or MSgt. Lastly, he is a LtCol and not a Colonel. Colonels wear eagles, LtCol wears a silver oak leaf.

The movie has potential but at the end feels more like a Broadway play than drama.
