I have no idea what the actor's name is, but the same guy seen in this movie, as the villager with the long hair, sunglasses and white shirt, who takes the pilot prisoner near the beginning of the movie, also has starred in a few awesome epic bug spray commercials from Thailand, most notably as a bad-ass cockroach. It's all I kept thinking about while watching this movie, in every scene he appeared in. I kept seeing him as the giant cockroach, in my head.:D

Inspired by true events, Rescue Dawn is a harrowing tale of survival. The story follows Navy pilot Dieter Dengler who’s shot down in Laos during the Vietnam War and is imprisoned in a Viet Cong internment camp until he and his fellow POWs attempt a daring escape. Christian Bale, Steve Zahn, and Jeremy Davies all give incredible performances. And, writer/director Werner Herzog does an impressive job at bringing a gritty realism to the film. However, the pacing is kind of slow, and the narrative is weak and hard to follow at times. Yet despite its problems, Rescue Dawn delivers a compelling tale of heroism.

Christian Bale makes friends and enemies alike in a sparsely-populated den of POWs at the onset of the Vietnam war. Undergoing another major transformation for the role, Bale lost a ton of weight to sell his emaciation, but as he's decked out in a big, baggy flight suit for the duration it's More
