Easy Targets

About This Movie

Easy Targets offers a raw look at the Vietnam War, set in 1973, where tension simmers throughout. The film captures a grim atmosphere as American sniper Calvin Hart and his injured spotter, Thomas Newton, navigate through hostile territory. What stands out here is the stark reality of their situation; limited resources and the constant threat of the Vietcong create a palpable sense of dread. The pacing is deliberately slow, allowing the viewer to feel the weight of their predicament. The radio communication with their sergeant adds an eerie layer, making the duo feel even more isolated. The performances, especially the interplay between Hart and Newton, ground the film in authenticity, emphasizing themes of survival and sacrifice amidst chaos.
