8/10. A fantastic "throw it on a hard drive" edition. Great for a watch party or a rainy afternoon when you don't want to commit massive bandwidth to a movie about starvation.
The final act—the actual rescue—is strangely bittersweet. Herzog shows you the cost of survival. It isn't a high-five moment; it is a haunted, quiet victory. For the film: 9/10. A masterclass in survival acting. Bale should have won an Oscar. Rescue Dawn -2006- 720p BrRip X264 - 800MB - YIFY
Herzog doesn’t glorify war. He glorifies tenacity . Dieter Dengler never gives up. Not when he is tortured. Not when his stomach collapses. Not when the plane he tries to steal won't start. He just keeps trying. The final act—the actual rescue—is strangely bittersweet
Christian Bale stars as Dieter Dengler, a German-born US Navy pilot shot down over Laos during the Vietnam War. The film doesn’t waste time with opening credits bombast. Within 15 minutes, Dieter is captured, tied up, and dragged through a mosquito-infested hellscape. For the film: 9/10
