a5c7b9f00b During the Vietnam War, a village that American forces are using to spy on the Ho Chi Minh Trail has its sacred elephant killed by the North Vietnamese Army because they were cooperating with the Americans. The villagers need an elephant for a ceremony that will occur within the week. Captain Sam Cahill, an easygoing man who is heading home, and his hotheaded replacement Captain TC Doyle scrounge up another elephant with the help of sneaky supply chief warrant officer David Poole, luckless farmboy Lawrence Farley, and short-timer Harvey Ashford, and transport it across South Vietnam to get it to the village on time, running into all sorts of transport problems, personality conflicts, and an NVA squad that wants the Americans out of the village. To keep the loyalty of a village during the Vietnam war, a U.S. Army officer and his unit struggle to deliver it a live elephant. Yah, hey I made a name just to argue with the idiot that made the last review for this movie. Laws of physics actually state that objects fall at the same speed no matter how heavy they are. Try it with a penny and a book at the top of your house. So don&#39;t talk about laws of physics if you are uninformed about something that is taught pretty much on Day One of Physics 101. So you may argue that it&#39;s still impossible to catch up with the elephant. Yah, it probably is, but if he went into a dive motion (a la James Bond in the beginning of Goldeneye) it&#39;s possible to decrease air resistance and increase aerodynamics in such a way to fall faster. Stunt sky-divers do it all the time. So that&#39;s the second reason why you&#39;re wrong. Talk to you later and hope you have fun posting opinionated comments about something when you have no basis or knowledge for opinion. Linh reminds us of a younger brother of a dear friend. After hearing so many tragic stories about Vietnam, it is heartwarming to be reminded that the true American spirit was alive and well during that awful time. We hear of the beauty in that country and of the wonderful people who reside there – this was just a glimpse into that world.<br/><br/>This movie presented a good account of some of the Americans and some of the Vietnamese.<br/><br/>We found ourselves rooting for a successful mission and a keeping of one&#39;s word. What can be of more value than a person&#39;s word? That is what this very entertaining movies is all about. The value of one&#39;s word.
