[Film Review] Coming Home (1978) 7.5/10
Hal Ashby's anti-war manifesto COMING HOME has a opening killer and ending - an improv conversation from real-life paraplegic Vietnam War vets, among whom, Luke Martin (Voight) remains silent, paying due respect to other's authenticated voice; and for the ending , Ashby goes understatedly poetic, juxtaposing three protagonists' respective actions and topping the movie off with a radical...

Very mediocre, reflecting the nothingness of the Vietnam War Capital, the filming is relatively loose, and the relationship between people and people is not reasonable enough. In the veterans' hospital for wounded soldiers, there is a man holding a Vietnamese puppet, and a depressed patient who plays guitar commits suicide by injecting air into his veins. In the film, the wife's husband is also traumatized by the war and becomes Grumpy,...

Marine Recruiter: The Marine Corps builds body, mind and spirit. Thank you.
High School Class Pres.: And now, with a different perspective, we have Luke Martin, combat veteran of the Marine Corps.
Luke Martin: Sergeant, do you mind if I ask you a question?
Marine Recruiter: No, sir.
Luke Martin: Just call me Sergeant. That's what I was. Where were you stationed?
Marine Recruiter: Danang.
Luke Martin: [Luke's speech is spliced with final scene of Capt. Bob Hyde where he is at the beach] You know, you want to be a part of it, patriotic, go out and get your licks in for the U.S. of A. And when you get over there, it's a totally different situation. I mean, you grow up real quick. Because all you're seeing is, um, a lot of death. And I know some of you guys are going to look at the uniformed man and you're going to remember all the films and you're going to think about the glory of other wars and think about some vague patriotic feeling and go off and fight this turkey too. And I'm telling you it ain't like it's in the movies. That's all I want to tell you, because I didn't have a choice. When I was your age, all I got was some guy standing up like that, man, giving me a lot of bullshit, man, which I caught. I was really in good shape then, man. I was captain of the football team. And I wanted to be a war hero, man, I wanted to go out and kill for my country. And now, I'm here to tell you that I have killed for my country or whatever. And I don't feel good about it. Because there's not enough reason, man, to feel a person die in your hands or to see your best buddy get blown away. I'm here to tell you, it's a lousy thing, man. I don't see any reason for it. And there's a lot of shit that I did over there that I find fucking hard to live with. And I don't want to see people like you, man, coming back and having to face the rest of your lives with that kind of shit. It's as simple as that. I don't feel sorry for myself. I'm a lot fucking smarter now than when I went. And I'm just telling you that there's a choice to be made here.

Capt. Bob Hyde: [Yelling at Sally after discovering her infidelity] What I'm saying is! I don't belong in this house, and they say I don't belong over there!

Sally Hyde: That never happened to me before.
