Thirty years after they served together in Vietnam, three friends reunite to help bury on of their sons. A very sad but moving story is actually pretty well summarized as: The Last Detail (1973) and Taking Chance (2009) meets The Big Chill (1983). It is more of an emotional rollercoaster than one may think from the trailers. Fine performances by the actors! This film should not be missed.

Trivia: This is a spiritual sequel to The Last Detail (1973) and the novel was an actual sequel to it. This was filmed in and around Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.
