Stylish but barely mediocre overall

If you're interested in the topic at hand, you should just watch it and judge yourself because the reviews have gone very biased by people that didn't even watch it and just hate (or love) the creator. I liked it, it was well written, narrated, and directed and it was about a topic that interests me.

Yes, absolutely, there is fun to be had, as well as many, many things to go boom, all amid an atmospheric urban jungle.

The tone of this movie is interesting -- the stakes are both dramatic and high, but it's balanced with a lot of fun, tongue and cheek dialogue.

Good production values, but rather simplistic narrative that didn't really help me sort out fact from fiction.I thought I was in trouble after they glossed over the Gulf of Tonkin incident early on.Had to listen carefully to hear other points of view. In my opinion, not really worth watching for those who want to take a serious look at the history of the Vietnam War. It might be helpful for some who want a (not so) quick overview.It was interesting to hear from people directly involved, and to see their photos from the actual events.Overall, the quality (in terms of historical accuracy and analysis) wasn't up to par with what I associate with the National Geographic brand.
