A joke to the Marines who served with "The Walking Dead" August 26, 2002 Art Lawing (Myrtle Beach, SC (USA)) 18 out of 21 found this review helpful
The piece of garabage don't even rate. I served with the Marine Outfit known as "The Walking Dead" or The 1st Bn. 9th Marines. This movie is an insult to the name of the brave Marines who fought and payed the ultimate price for there country and Corp. This Movie ( what I saw of it ) was the biggest nothing ever put on film. If you want the true story of the "Walking Dead" and believe me there is a hell of a story, then have some film maker get with the Marines who fought for the 1st Bn, 9th Marines. It will surpass any Vietnam era Movie including "We Were Soldiers", "Hamburger Hill" or "Platoon".

It is a crying shame that the producers of this piece of crap chose to use this title. First Battalion Ninth Marine Regiment nicknamed "The Walking Dead" has been done a tremendous discredit by having their name associated with such Hollywood garbage. Read the book instead and don't waste one penny on this junk. The real story of 1/9 would make a tremendous movie.
Only the military could bring them together October 17, 2002 rodog63jr (bronx, N.Y.C. N.Y. USA) 5 out of 10 found this review helpful
A preacher fleeing a town in which he murdered his wife and her lover, a teenage boy showing his love to his high school sweetheart, a former meatpacker trying to get money to start his own business, a mechanic trying to get onbase housing and fleeing housing discrimination in L.A., and a trigger happy guy fleeing the mob. This crew unites in The Marine Corps on a rescue mission that turns out to be a decoy mission. Hoover (Eddie Griffin) makes the movie enjoyable while Sgt. Barkley (joe Morton) keeps it military. Cole ( Allen Payne) keeps it real with the tiki and his insistence on not calling Muhammad Ali Cassius Clay. This movie covers the Black Veteran in Vietnam in a dramatic way.

This movie is about a black army platoon who thinks they have gone on a secret military operation but, are really decoys...So they are not the hunters they are the hunted...All of these black men came from diffrent backrounds ..so that creates tension through the entire film..All around good movie...
Amazing. January 7, 2001 3 out of 6 found this review helpful
I love war movies and have seen tons of them,and this is one of the best.Not only are the action sequences amazing and pulse-pounding, but the background stories of the characters are really cool because they provide insight into their lives, and mainly what brought them into the vietnam war.There is so much action, suspense, and even comedy in some parts of this movie its a must see for anyone who is a fan of war movies.
