    A movie would be very boring if it followed a group of quiet men walking slowly through the jungle. Think about it. Don't believe everything you see. Depending on the date of the movie, it could also simply be to portray the American soldier in a bad light. Common practice from Vietnam through the beginning of the first Gulf War. The Vietnam war was unpopular and the military got no respect for decades afterward.
