Movie Review: Jarhead

Jarhead. This movie is outstanding. My husband, my sister-in-law and I went to the matinee yesterday. I had some apprehension because I thought it might try to make a political point. It does not. It is just a great movie. Jake Gyllenhaal gives a phenomenal performance as the main character. The cinematography is breathtaking. The writing and the mood are right on. This is the best movie I have seen this year at the theater. It was an excellent theater experience and I would pay to see it in the theater again!
