Still, well done. I agree with niki - BoB 1, P 0
It's not bad, but the story needs waaay more development. You'd think they could find more (real, living) marines to follow their lives, as they did in BoB. Plus, I wonder who's idea it was to play target practice with the Jap soldier? Seemed silly to me. The after battle scene was good with the bodies out in the sand, just like Ichiki's attack and the real photos of the battle. I'll probably nit-pick the guadalcanal stuff to pieces, as that is my favorite WW2 battle.
