A perfect movie. The acting, the story, the sets and even the soundtrack is absolutely perfect. This movie is, in my opinion, Clint Eastwood's masterpiece.

The Pacific War has never looked so humanistic and uplifting! Eastwood has directed an inspiring film portraying the innate dignity evinced in all mankind. Whether it be a Japanese or American: war dehumanizes everyone; stripes humans to bear-bone nothingness and removes our integrity and worth. Moreover, Eastwood employs the same gray/blueish saturation that Spielberg did in Saving Private Ryan adding an atmospheric quality. One glaring fault is the film wonders, and is rather prolix at points.

Liked this more than I expected to. Eastwood does a great job; he can get a little maudlin at times with the piano score, but it's not used too often, and otherwise he never forces melodrama. There are some downright brutal scenes, and he lets the material and the nature of the conflict speak for itself.

Letters from Iwo Jima is the best Eastwood movie I've seen since Unforgiven, but that's not saying much because I'm not a big fan. His vision here, however, is very well executed. The movie is worth a look if only for the cinematography with its almost black-and-white look and the solid performances by everyone involved, especially Ken Watanabe.

Very well paced movie which depicts the story of the battle of Iwo Jima from the Japanese side. In my opinion this part has missing the ingredient lacking in Flags of our father. The story just shows that both sides of the war were in reality the same in nature. Each one was fighting for his country and did what was required to defend his country. The background score is really powerful. Overall a very good entertaining movie, recommend to watch it after viewing Flags of Our Father.
