HAMBURGER HILL (1987)
JOHN IRWIN
Plot
Of all the 1980s rash of Vietnam movies, this was the simplest, bloodiest and most action-packed. Based on the true story of the assault on a well-fortified NVA position, Hill 937, this was a bloody, pointless and suicidal event which created near mutiny in the American ranks as their bodies littered the hill. Like a harrowing remake of 'The Sands of Iwo Jima'.
