This is so much more than an anti-war film, this is one mans journey into a claustrophobic living hell. When johnny goes of to war in the name of democracy he gets his face, arms and legs blown off and becomes blind, deaf, paralized and trapped in his own mind while the doctors believe he is nothing more than a vegetable...brain dead.
The book is so much more powerful than the film, after I got done reading it, I almost wanted to write myself a will. I was just thinking about how much of a terrible existence this would be, and I'm thankful for how well off I am.
