We were soldiers was accurate for the part of the war that it portrayed. It looked like it could have been filmed near where I live but with hills (which is basically where it was filmed, duh). But being a film, I understand that they have to take those liberties often.

Other than that, the movie is average at best. It started good, but the actual in country footage is only so-so.

And Apocalypse Now was filmed in the phillipines, not vietnam.
