| Chicago Sun-TimesRoger EbertThis is the first time [Stone] has tried to place himself inside a woman's imagination, and that he succeeds so well is due partly...to an extraordinary performance by Hiep Thi Le in the leading role. |
| Kansas City KansanSteve CrumOverblown, forgettable Oliver Stone epic. |
| rec.arts.movies.reviewsMark R. LeeperI found this story moving and at times wrenching...Oliver Stone has made his best film about Vietnam. |
