 | This is a great movie, my only beef with the DVD is the missing subtitles. Everytime one of the Vietcong speak, you have no idea whats going on because of the missing subtitles. |

| It's wartime in Vietnam, and American soldiers inadvertently cause the shooting death of a revered elephant belonging to the citizens of Dak Nhe. Oops. To appease the Vietnamese villagers who loved their mascot, the blundering soldiers (Ray Liotta and Danny Glover) take it upon themselves to replace the punctured pachyderm. Easy as that, they find Bo-Tat (played by Tai) and have her airlifted and gently dropped into the remote area. Interesting, good action, so-so on the comedy.

| The version I saw in theater had subtitles for what the Viet Cong were saying. Due to the film being in Full Screen scan and pan the subtitles for the Vietnamese is missing, so you're missing out on 25-50% of the story of what's going on. Additionally you miss the final comment by the VC soldier, which was funny. It's still a great movie, but Disney really screwed this release up by not reformatting the subtitle to fit the full frame edition they stuck it in.
** EDIT** Had English subtitles on, so the Vietnamese wasn't shown as it loaded thru the captions. I leave my rating at 3 due to no Widescreen version or special features worth mentioning though. It wasn't a bad movie, it deserves a better DVD treatment, esp from a company like Disney. |

| I first saw this at the movies when I was eight years old. I thought it was a good movie then and I think it's still a good movie. A small squad of US soldiers in Vietnam are ordered to escourt a young Vietnamese boy and his elephant to a village in a remote part of the country. After some failed attempts of getting the elepahnt there on foot, they finally decide to air-drop it near the village! While being filled with adventure(not that violent) and comedy, it will make almost everybody in the family happy. |
