Joe's War

I would just like to say that this film delivers on many complex issues facing our Veterans. It is nice to see that it was done tastefully. The writers seem to be very respectful of the US Veterans. They took on a tough subject matter and have opened my eyes to what some of these kids are going through.

Kudos to the team effort on this film. Many great supporting roles. Tina Grimm, Louis Vanaria, Anthony Gallo, Robert Kirk, all familiar faces. And let's not forget the talents of the lead Michael Markiewicz along with Joe Lisi and the greats Armand Assante, Ed Asner and Tom Sizemore... All in all a really good and very touching movie A++

Watched "Joes War" twice, it is a very deep and compelling story. The acting was heartfelt and moving on a subject that needs much more exposure. I felt the story was true to life as I know many people that suffer from PTSD!!

I recommend this movie to be seen by everyone, as we are all affected in one way or another with this horrible disease. I believe this movie will shed some light and may possibly save someones life, who can ask for more!!

Joe's War tells the story of a returning two tour soldier coping with the horrors of Post Traumatic Stress Syndrome (PTSD). It tackles the hard realities surrounding PTSD in an honest, hometown way.

The Staten Island/Brooklyn feel and real world display of compassion and love so native to that area and it's people help keep the story moving. The musical score fits perfectly.

Props to the writer for his passion portraying an issue which deserves attention.

The acting was above par, with my highest ratings going to Armand Assante, Michael Markiewicz, and Lois Vanaria.

I suppose its a good movie depicting the effects of PTSD, however, the cinematography, acting, music and depth of plot lets this movie down. Having watched this, I'm now inclined to watch The Deer Hunter (1978) again for the 100th time,it is with out a doubt the best film of its kind.

Excellent movie to help understand PTSD. I think it does a service on just this and hope it helps a family or family member struggling with service time. Thank you for this movie as no one has touched specifically or dedicated a whole move to just this subject. God Bless those that served and God help those in need after service.
