In 1979 the movie Apocalypse Now was released .
Which is a timeless masterpiece .
It's baffling how Go Tell the Spartans was released in 1978, or why it was made in the first place . This movie might have been contemporary in the 1950s, maybe even relevant, but would still have been a B-movie .
The term 'wooden' can be applied not only to the acting, but also to the story, writing, camera work, sound , editing, you name it .
It seems like someone in the late 70s went back in time by 20 years or so , produced a mediocre film based on what was popular back then, and returned to show this outdated drivel in cinemas .
It's so cartoonish, it's not even about actual human beings, let alone the Vietnam war .
