guglielmo d It opens your mind to things that we normally don't experience... It is and remains a tear-jerking film. Very realistic and impressive, beautiful simple film. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 06/22/24 Full Review Audience Member The true story of one man taking another home Kevin Bacon plays a marine Michael Strobl volunteering to escort a fellow soldier after he's killed in the war in Iraq His name was Chance Phillips and Strobl wants to make sure he's all well cared for as far as the funeral and paying respects This is a super short movie but one that's all about learning to say goodbye, rendering honor, and having respect and dignity in life and in death Bacon gives a surefire performance as someone who didn't know him personally but was still touched and affected as many others might've been Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/21/24 Full Review Frank F I have cried the two times I have seen this movie and seeing the honor that is paid to these fallen warriors and their families is outstanding and being a Vietnamese Nam Veteran and seeing his father lay his Viet Nam medals on n the coffin broke my heart Thank you to Kevin Bacon for is awesome portrayal Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/29/23 Full Review Richard K was up late one night when this movie took over after something else that I cannot recall had finished. I wasn't paying much attention until I noticed Kevin Bacon was in it. now, who doesn't love Bacon? in this movie he proved himself versatile once again. in a very serious gut punch of a movie, he tells us the true tale of how our fallen service members return home. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/11/23 Full Review Diffused As a US Marine Infantry Iraq War Vet....Waterworks for the entire movie. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 04/07/23 Full Review Paul K Maybe the most under the radar movie I ever viewed. Happen to see this just before I lost HBO a few years back. For some reason I just thought of this movie recently and ordered the DVD. This is never on tv for whatever reason. Should be mandatory showing on HBO or somewhere on tv every Memorial Day weekend. Bacon gives the performance of a lifetime. Really gave me the full story or what happens when one of our service people is killed overseas and the process of bringing them home. Tearjerker of an ending for sure. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/30/22 Full Review Read all reviews
