Casper Van Dien stars in 2001s 'Under Heavy Fire' also known as 'Going Back' in some regions. Directed by Sidney J. Furie, the film has an interesting premise with Van Dien playing Captain Ramsey, a US Marine Corps Vietnam War veteran, who accompanies a documentary crew as they go back to Vietnam with members of his old Company as they attempt to find out exactly what happened when he did (or maybe did not) cause an accident that caused the death of troops under his command. This makes for a film that is trope and cliche heavy with an ending that must be seen to be believed...

Pierre Schoendoerffer's 1965 film 'The 317th Platoon' follows an ill-fated French platoon as they attempt to reach a village held by friendly forces during the final days of the battle of Bien Dien Phu. Shot in black and white in Cambodia around the time of the U.S. ramping up their military involvement in Vietnam, the film depicts jungle combat with a stark realism often unseen in Western cinema of that era. We also look at your favourite depictions of French Forces on film!

'LEE' stars Kate Winslet as the revered model-turned-war correspondent Lee Miller, in this new biopic from Sky Cinema. The boys were lucky enough to watch an advanced screening of the film and give their thoughts ahead of its full theatrical release on the 13th September in the UK. From Miller's time in France pre-war to her time at the front in 1944. The film shows Lee's work with care and respect for not only her craft but the people she captured with her trusty Rolliflex.
