'Danger Close' is a fantastic portrayal of the 'Battle of Long Tan' - a side of the story you don't hear very much about. It's a well above average war movie, filled with action.

This movie surely exceeded my expectations, despite not having any big name stars (except for Fimmel), and lacking media promotion, this movie does deliver! In other words, this is what you'd get if you had a low budget 'Hacksaw Ridge' - without Mel Gibson.

I suggest giving this movie a go!

Sometimes old fashioned in its telling, but still a worthy retelling of true life events.

That was a great watch. Riveting stuff.

The greatest war movies always wander the line between "war is glorious" and "war is hell", this is no exception with many exhilarating scenes. But in the end, war is hell and war never changes,

_Danger Close: The Battle of Long Tan_ is a good war movie that sheds light on an overlooked chapter of history. The movie focuses on the Battle of Long Tan, a significant event in the Vietnam War, and offers a perspective that many viewers may not be familiar with. The film's battle scenes are intense and visually stunning, showcasing the harsh realities of war. The filmmakers have done an impressive job of recreating the atmosphere and tension of the battlefield, making it feel like you're there. Overall, _Danger Close: The Battle of Long Tan_ is a movie that does justice to the soldiers who fought in this brutal conflict.

The movie is average, actors were good but I am confused how nobody mentions how historically inaccurate this movie is... I mean when you see a helicopter flying over the woods — there is artificial forest where you may see the tree lines which surely wasn't a thing in Vietnam those days. Also the nature is kinda far from what it looks like in Vietnam at all and I was shocked we didn't see a kangaroo jumping around (sorry). Viet Cong uniform is far from looking similar to what they used. I don't mean they all were wearing those nón lá leaf hats but they weren't using boonie hats for sure since they were supplied by China and USSR... This is kinda ridiculous to watch to be honest.

I more or less stumpled upon this one. It's not big budget hollywood and I don't think I've ever seen a trailer. It's been a while since I saw a good Vietnam war-movie. And this one is as good as it gets. I don't know of the real battle so I can't say anything about accuracy. I like that it's not to overdrawn in terms of how the battle is portrayed. It looks real, probably because the photography is real and not CG and green screen.
On thing that had me wondering though was they seem to be very lax when it comes to following orders. I wouldn't say they were lucky because many lost thier lives but it seems there was nonetheless some luck involved. It may very well be that there is some artistic freedom involved. As I mentioned, I don't know what happened for real.
In any case, very good movie and well worth the two hours.
