"The Siege of Firebase Gloria" is a really graphic flick about a squirmish at an American base called Firebase Gloria in Vietnam. It features R. Lee Ermey (who seems born to portray all-American soldiers) as a right-wing commander, and Wings Hauser, who plays a relentless but tender-hearted commando. What I mean by that is about a scene where Hauser maniacally beats the truth out of a Vietnamese soldier, but there was also a part where Wings saves the life of a helps little boy with the same cultural origin of that one soldier.
This film has a lot of graphic violence. Literally, the blood flowed like rivers in this flick! However, it was reallistically portrayed and nicely filmed, with great action sequences and dramatic performances by Ermey and the always dependable Hauser. One last word of advice, dear reader: if you are a Vietnam vet that suffers from post-traumatic-stress-syndrome and cannot stand the sight of full-fledged war violence, do not, I repeat, DO NOT watch "The Siege of Firebase Gloria", for your own safety, if you can't stomach this kind of content.
