Bought it for a former Marine grunt friend who doesn't order online. He let me borrow the DVD when he was done with it Platoon meets The Alamo is basiclly what you get here. For better or for worse, a Marine unit has to stand their ground against a constant onslaught of VC while utilizing minimal resources. For a lower budgeted film, it was better than I thought it would be. Loved some of R. Lee Ermey's dialogue! Don't look for a beautiful transfer here on DVD, you won't find it. Some parts look down right horrible with a lot of grain. But it is what it is. Siege Of Firebase Gloria is hard to find anyway. Just be glad you have a copy, and hope for a nicer release in the future.

This movie is basically badly acted non-stop carnage with no real plot . The "fire base" is just a jumble of sand bags occupied by a group of idiots acting like theey got their military training playing bad video games. The "base" has no characteristics (except sandbags) of a fire base, lacking wire protection, ,inefields, and artillery (which is the whole purpose of a fire base). Thr participants on both sides seem most interested in getting killed as quickly as possible.

I had this movie on VHS, but my whole collection was gone with the technology. I have been searching for this to appear on DVD for several years because it is that good of a movie. The characters are very life-like. R. Lee Ermey plays as good of a role as ever. His character reminded me of the Sgt Majors of the VietNam era. Totally gung ho Marine. Wings Hauser was your total Marine in the ranks. Overall, I would rate this a a Great Movie! Deserves all 5 stars.
