A well-made drama focusing on the suffering, torture, and brutal treatment the American P.O.W.s had to deal with daily while in North Vietnam's Hoa Lo Prison, the most infamous P.O.W. camp in Hanoi. The film focuses on the resistance the prisoners gave to their captors and the strong bonds formed by the Americans during their captivity.
Originally released on March 27, 1987.

I didn't spit on them....Though I DO appreciate the frustration expressed in your comment. However, given what I know NOW, if I had been of draftable age back then, I too would be screaming "HELL NO I WONT GO!!" (Maybe even finding myself a "boyfriend" in the PRE "Don't ask Don't Tell" of "Slick Willy's" military-- just so I could DISQUALIFY myself from being sent over there??? "Sissy" gay/queer boys generally avoided being sent to Vietnam--just in case you ain't "digging" what I'm trying to tell ya here.🙄) But you might also be interested to know that there were also what could be called "Middle Americans" (Made up, at the time, of what Tom Brokaw called "The Greatest Generation" **) who were not exactly "angry shit disturbing hippies" but "disappointed and/or disgusted Dads" who chastised mainly their "sons" who fought in that disaster of a war, and dared accused THEM of LOSING the war, somehow forgetting that basically the "sons" were SET UP FOR FAILURE right from the START?? The "sons" didn't have a chance to "back talk" their "fathers" back in those days by saying something like: "Gee Dad, how great would your "g-g-g-neration" be if, say, when you were fighting WW2-- either in Europe or the Pacific, a bunch of EMBEDDED JOURNALISTS constantly sent home PICTURES of dead soldiers AND even dead enemies?? Do you think the "ol homefront" would tolerate THAT????? And ANOTHER thing Pa.....What kind of war is fought where TERRITORY is FOUGHT FOR AND WON only to basically GIVE IT BACK because BODY COUNTS are more important????????!!!!! Also, unlike your Axis powered foes, the Vietnamese weren't exactly into the wearing of UNIFORMS....You know, those things "soldiers" tend to wear so soldiers from the OPPOSING SIDE know who they can GET AWAY WITH SHOOTING/KILLING??? But try not to be too disgusted with the MY LAI story because shit like that was NOT an isolated incident, and if you want to look at MY LAI cynically, you COULD get away with saying maybe it's JUST AS WELL that Lt. William Calley and his men shot all those people up because if they cooperated with U.S. forces maybe the NORTH VIETNAMESE or the VIET CONG would have shot them up instead???? (Maybe even would have just BURIED THEM ALIVE just to "SAVE BULLETS"????!!! 🙄😒🙄😒 ** I really am not that big of a fan of Tom Brokaw's book "The Greatest Generation" though I confess I have NOT actually read it. It COULD actually be a pretty decent book I don't know. But something about the TITLE of the book kind of rubs me the wrong way....As if ALL the OTHER generations were or ARE somehow INFERIOR?? For THAT matter the "REAL Greatest Generation" was that who fought for the NORTH in the AMERICAN CIVIL WAR of the 19th CENTURY!!!

The North Vietnamese officer was right about one thing. The United States never formally declared war against North Vietnam. Therefore American prisoners were denied the protection of the Geneva Convention. Lyndon Johnson and later Richard Nixon brought much suffering on brave men that fought and died in Southeast Asia.

Enough of the Johnson, McNamera and politicians blaming about Vietnam. Every guy who allowed himself to be sent to Vietnam was a chump and pawn. They were still individuals who had the power of choice. Consequences does not change that reality. NONE of those guys had a legitimate right or reason to be in Vietnam. The US lacked integrity and courage to formally declare war against anyone. They were invaders and aggressors in someone else's country that did nothing to the US and Americans. Why should the Geneva Convention protect them? Because they're Americans??

And as sleazy as "Tricky Dick" and his "boyfriend" Henry Kissinger was, they DID eventually pave some sort of path OUT of the morass that was known as the Vietnam war. (But not before helping to turn neighboring CAMBODIA into yet another Hell hole...."Thankfully" a Hellhole mainly for Cambodians themselves.😶)

Your sentiments are understood...but also misguided. Your friends and the other 2.7 million Americans had no legitimate right or reason to be in Vietnam in the first place. Your Government was imperialistic. Your friends and you experienced the consequences of a wrong choice. There should have been no American involvement in Vietnam. There is no way you can connect the "sacrifices" in Vietnam with preserving American security, safety and freedom. That is pure delusion. Quit worrying about the young who have no clue. If they don't make the same mistakes you "old veterans" did...they're doing just fine. I'm not a Monday morning quarterback on Vietnam. I am a proud Vietnam/Draft resistor.

I'm sure this film meant a lot to the survivors and families of the Vietnam generation. One of the Canadian Legions that I was a member of after my retirement had as its president a fellow cold warrior like myself. His father had been in World War II and captured at Dieppe. He was the only veteran I ever got to speak with who had been a prisoner of war. He was a man that most sadly never found peace, was always alone and never associated with other veterans from his War. I thought of him alot while viewing this movie. I can only offer the highest respect towards the producers of this movie, together with all the actors who I'd think considered their roles a patriotic duty.

Interesting story. My grandfather who fought in WW2 also never talked about it. It took me a life time and severe personal trauma to understand why someone would soak up so much drama and never speak of it. He got shot and was in a German prison camp for officers for 2yrs or so. I am Belgian and went to Omaha memorial ground twice... the entire area where D day happened. I'm normally pretty loud but that shut me up. Much respect for what American soldiers sacrificed to liberate us. But one thing i hold against American soldiers... they thought they were in France when they were eating French fries here in Belgium... they are Belgian fries, but the name stuck... lol

Weird point of view. What sense in patriotisme when your soldiers fought with/supported a false regime? OPPOSITE to WW2 they where not fighting Nazis and fascists, but only asians who fought for independance after colonialism. And another democratic "issue": If most citizens vote for communism or socialism it's not good from OUR perspektiver, but democracy is exactly" we ,the people" deciding our "fate".Not geopolitisk. Sorry bout that. But I still thank all allies for their sacrifices in liberating europe from NS and fascism. Furthermore respect to all veterans in any conflict. You served your IDEALS and countries, without selfishness. 💚

@@tomteanders1357 I share the same view. Western civilizations are SO proud of democracy but when people democratically choose socialism or communism, all hell breaks lose. When i vote for socialism in my country, i am regarded as weak, not realistic, idealistic ... but in the same way capitalism is hated on. Capitalists are always seen as greedy pigs. People just have a tendency to identify with one side of a coin and treat the other side as their enemy.. while it's a coin and it has two sides. As a species we are BOTH commune orientated as WELL as having a need for individuality. Not accepting this means conflict.

Why be so hateful. We were all confused and torn by this horrific war and started out against the war and the military, then years later our friends and class mates were drafted and enlisted to a screwed up war. After attending more military funerals than I can count, and talking to soldiers that came home alive, we joined together to bring all of our soldiers home and demand the end to a war that was never declared a war. She was no different than the rest of us that was the generation that sacrificed everything in that damn war. I lost the love of my life and too many came home missing limbs and their minds. We loved our soldiers, they were our friends and family. 😢

In case the truth gets lost in all the sentimental patriotism....this is the reality. Not one of those guys had a legitimate right or reason to be in Vietnam. A lot of the POWs were pilots. They dropped all kinds of ordinance everywhere...both North and South Vietnam. There were huge innocent casualties and destruction of infrastructure. The Vietnamese considered them "war criminals". Considering they didn't belong there and there was no declaration of war I consider that an accusation worthy of an international court of law. No one is saying the enemy were good guys....but those POWs weren't guys in the White Hats either. They were lucky the enemy didn't eliminate them instead of incarcerating them.

There's no backstory as to why/how the old colonel eventually goes non-compus mente, and just stands there oblivious. What happened? Did he suffer brain damage as a result of further beatings or torture? Did he simply have a total psychological breakdown? Also, the young kid who's killed after trying to escape: How exactly did they kill him? No gun was fired. Was he stabbed? They just forced him to the ground with that bit in his mouth and then he died.

John McCain was shot down over Hanoi. When parachuting into Truc Bach Lake, Hanoi people rushed in and tried to beat him to death. They hate the enemy who dropped tens of thousands of tons of bombs killing their people. Luckily for McCain, NVA soldiers stopped the Hanoi people in time to save his life. John McCain broke his leg and arm, received rehabilitation treatment, and walked normally. Yet, after North Vietnam returned the prisoners. The plane landed in the US, Nixon greeted McCain while McCain with his leg in a cast and his arm on crutches. Perhaps on the repatriation flight of US prisoners of war, the US delegation prepared all the props for McCain to act like a miserable disabled person.

I'm less than 5 minutes into this movie and as a retired Air Force Officer, I am, already greatly disappointed by the inaccuracy of their depiction of the uniforms, dialog, and use of non period aircraft. I doubt Senator McCain was a 'military technical advisor'.

@@ChazToz The ending credits shows a list of former military officers and thanking them for their help in making the movie. One of the names were of Senetor John McCain. The movie appears to be a victim of a low budget.

Well, here is a clue for future reference....When a bunch of ACTORS are listed in the BEGINNING CREDITS of a video, then there is a VERY GOOD chance that what you're watching is a MOVIE (sometimes even BASED or even "free-based") on actual people and events. Otherwise what you're watching COULD be a documentary....Or maybe just a PORNO??? Or a COMMERCIAL... ...Maybe even an INFOMERCIAL????!!!🙄🤣🙄🤣

Nice film. Except, after many years of imprisonment, torture, malnutrition, maltreatment, and all the other awful conditions they had to endure, none of them lost any weight. Interestingly, they also kept their typically American healthy facial complexion.

I've read every POW book I could possibly get my hands on regarding Vietnam, not for nothing but this is a piss poor portrayal of what they went through. They were brave, but they did not jump out of bed looking forward to torture. Some had trouble when they got home hearing keys rattle. This is just typical America Rah Rah Rah nonesense

Interesting... My uncle-in-law was a WWII B-17 Navigator, shot down over southern France in the winter time. He avoided capture for 6 days before spending the rest of the war in a German POW camp. He couldn't understand why so many Americans saw the Vietnam POWs as heroes. He was always viewed as someone who screwed up by getting shot down. He was pretty hard on himself, describing how he suffered walking barefoot in the snow having worn out his wool sheepskin flying booties and not grabbing his shoes before he bailed out.
