Tigerland
2000
***½
Director: Joel Schumacher
Cast: Colin Farrell, Matthew Davis, Clifton Collins Jr., Shea Whigham
Colin Farrell plays a maverick among a group of young men who are in combat training, waiting to be shipped to Vietnam. Joel Schumacher has ditched his trademark glitzy visuals in favour of gritty hand-held camera work for this strong but somewhat trivial character study. Farrell and Collins stand out in a great young emsemble cast.
