Jarhead Sam Mendes 2005 US (1st time; big screen) A platoon of Marines struggle to avoid boredom during the First Gulf War. An effective succession of non-events and anti-climaxes, it is marred by its own failure to avoid--or decision to acknowledge--war movie clichés; if the message is that these soldiers are just kids, why do they always have to be noisy retards? References to other like-minded war movies save it from being lost, but as Gyllenhal says at one point, "All wars are different; all wars are the same." A reference, perhaps, to the film itself.
