In my humble opinion, Meryl Streep is the greatest actress... period. Her talent is unbelievable, it is out of this world. I rented this movie expecting another amazing Meryl Streep performance, but got much more than that.
"The Deer Hunter" is an emotionally powerful film about normal men who went to war and their lives were changed forever after it. Not only is Meryl Streep in this film, but so is one of the greatest actors of all-time, Robert De Niro. When you have 2 amazing actors together in one film, it is bound to be excellent. Also in this film is a very young Christopher Walken, John Savage and John Cazale (this film is the last out of 5 films he made).
I like War films a lot. My favorite war films are Vietnam films (for what reason, I don't know). Out of every Vietnam film I saw, this is the most powerful, saddest, yet beautiful one out of all of them (and there are so many great Vietnam films). It shows what happens to innocent people when they are forced into the horrors of war. It's heavy, emotional, and ... well, I know i've called it this word many times in this review, but it's beautiful. Plain and simple. It is definitely worth your time.
10/10
