Boll…

Is…

BACK!!! Twenty years after the heyday of Vietnam movies, Germany’s Mad Doctor of Cinema attempts to resurrect the genre in his own unique idiom. I was a little disappointed in the trailer at the outset when, just like every other damn Vietnam trailer out there, Boll cranks up the Buffalo Springfield to evoke the period. But after an inauspicious beginning, the Boll-ness of it kicks in around the time the soldiers descend into the tunnel. After the relatively sanitized lunacy of his PG-13 In the Name of the King, Boll kicks out the crazy again here, with plenty of gore and eviscerations in evidence. And is that a Michael Paré sighting? Awesome. I don’t expect the gum-chewing gamers to turn out for this, but you can bet your ass I’ll be there.
