This one's a real slow burner. I really dig Vietnam-era war films, but Coming Home just doesn't resonate very powerfully. Nothing stands out much here. Bonus points to Ashby for framing the movie with "Out of Time" by the Stones.

Very powerful and moving film. Ashby did something really interesting with the music with this one as well. The way he blends diegetic and non-diegetic music was perfect, it didn't hurt that the soundtrack was good (but what you would expect). The acting is all great and Voight's speech at the end is particularly memorable. Good film.

A fine story about the downside of the war. Well performances on the whole cast and directing. The end speech was a bit naive and oldish for modern days.

The right movie at the right time, but a bit too lightweight for the subject matter. This could have made the characters more interesting so we'd feel more of what they felt.

Ashby's incredible streak of great films in the 70's has ended with this mediocre anti-war movie. He's still a great storyteller, and all of the actors perform well enough to keep us engaged in the story, but it's just ain't good enough. The bland use of 60's hits (Dylan, Beatles, Stones, Jefferson Airplane etc.) on the soundtrack doesn't work very well either.

Quite good film about a neglected subject at the time--what happens when veterans come home and their lovers.
