I read your Thread and I was actually still into the Movie even when the story moved and took place in Vietnam.
I really enjoyed the last 20 minutes of it when they encountered the sniper.

I think Platoon is the best movie about Vietnam.

It is. The actors in it, Tom Berenger & Willem Defoe in particular, are very good. That's what sets it apart from Full Metal Jacket etc.

Not a movie but China Beach, the TV show, was great.

I enjoyed it, but it was a somewhat sanitized depiction of Nam. I guess it was right for
TV audiences, though. It's available on DVD now.
More movies about Nam worth a look:
Good Morning, Vietnam
Hamburger Hill
Air America
We Were Soldiers
The Odd Angry Shot
Flight of the Intruder
Casualties of War
Windtalkers
Bat*21
