Jarhead

A very good film about being in the military - although the characters go through the Desert Shield/Desert Shield operations it's not a war movie in the traditional sense.

Instead it deals with the way people deal with being in the US Marines. I can't really say whether or not it's an accurate portrayal of the lifestyle and people, but it certainly feels like it is.

The acting is superb, with all the characters bringing a lot to the film (even the initially stereotypical-seeming characters).
