Empty what is full. Fill what is empty. Scratch what itches.

Rescue Dawn (2006)




Christian Bale was the obvious reason for which I chose to watch this movie. And, this was a great performance from him as usual. He really makes this character his own. Directed by Werner Herzog, this film is based on a true story of survival during Vietnam War. But the historical accuracy of this film is strongly criticized here.

This is one of the films that portray the true struggle for freedom and survival. I have not seen any movie of Steve Zahn before. His portrayal of a broken man is just amazing and he does overshadow Christian Bale.

But, this movie is not recommended for weak hearts as it contains strong sequences of violence and torture.
