As said before sad movie but good also. Only, I should not say it, the haircut. I've never understood. It is not that believable. But anyway, doesn't matter in the end. Movies "like this" have at least one important message if anything. Even outside of war, take care of you and others. Not easy to do, but important to try. Cheers...
"You ain't seen nothing like a #mightyquinn" The 1989 #themightyquinn film was filmed on location in my hometown: Port Antonio and re-watching it last night was simply amazing. Every shot captures the beauty and charm of a place I once called home, and I do believe any Portland born individual who knew Port Antonio back then can relate and get this song and the film in general. Starring: #DenzelWashington, #RobertTownsend #JamesFox #SherylLeeRalph; #EstherRolle (Good times with #JohnAmos)
He does a great job on this Taj Mahal classic. Sheryl Lee Ralph incredible too! Loved this movie from the first time I saw it, managed to catch it in the theater on initial release.
I always liked this film ever since I caught it late one night on TV almost 20 years ago. I purchased the VHS copy and watched it many times. I could never understand why many people, critics included, didn't like it. It is a unique film for the genre as I have found young women who watch it relate to it as well, a rarity for war films. It has been fascinating to watch opinion change over time from this being perceived as a bad film to now some critics believing it to be one of the best Vietnam war films.
This scene always chokes me up. They could've kept "cherry" alive if they had tried just a little harder. He was obviously a scared shitless kid who needed a guiding hand to calm him down/chill him out. Ericksson comes to that realization a little too late for poor Cherry.
Poor Cherry. He was probably too afraid to go to war willingly. Therefore he was probably conscripted and pressured. Therefore he was too tense, nervous and anxious to handle the pressure.
Loved that film. Mighty Quinn, Devil In Blue Dress, Crimson Tide, The Seige , Man On Fire, Training Day , Courage under Fire are my faves of his. Sorry I did not identify MalcomX.
I have never seen this movie and is it very well to watch it for me?
Michael Jay Fox should have won a Oscar for his performance as a soldier with a sense of right and wrong
I love this movie and this song so much ! ❤️
Where can I find the full movie the mighty Quinn
Isn’t “cherry” the derogatory nick name veterans gave to young and unexperienced soldiers?
How did Cherry get past basic training? He certainly didn’t belong in combat. The sargent was right about him.
Makes you wonder how he passed basics?

Deff not the best war movie

Damn Cherry just stepped away two seconds ago 🥺

I wish Denzel sang more in his movies! Love this so much.
Amén!!!
I love this movie. Definitely a classic he and Robert Townsend
Loved that film. Mighty Quinn, Devil In Blue Dress, Crimson Tide, The Seige , Man On Fire, Training Day , Courage under Fire are my faves of his. Sorry I did not identify MalcomX.
You didn’t need to. That’s ok too.
Cameron Quinn mighty
Great movie.
This scene gets me every time
1:43 - What you're looking for.
The best performance from Micheal J Fox in a movie.
Fox was great but IMO Sean Penn stole every scene he was in.
How on earth did that guy make it through basic training?
McNamara's Morons, look it up.
Mcnamara's morons
I wish we could recreate this with Nial Quinn
Watch this on repeat it’s brilliant scene
This versions so much better than the original song for me 😂 stuck with me for years always makes me smile
one of the best scenes in cinematic history :)
MARAVILHOSO....
I just want to know why this song never made it onto the soundtrack album.
Let it go baby let it go baby. Have a beer
He gets done so fuckin dirty in this but he comes out on top.
I wanna know if things happn like this at the army..and why no 1 reported the sargent.?.
Have you watched the movie?
@@PrimitiveFilmGroup yes
Fine ❤😍
. ..."
Can’t find the cake walk song anywhere
The scumbag sentenced to "life" in prison for murder got out in 4 yrs... Military barely slapped his wrist.
First Luke skywalker in ww2 , Then ethan hunt now marty mcfly
Que saudades gosto muito desse filme
I’m sorry but MJ Fox is a corny actor! I’m not saying he can’t act, he’s just super corny bro! 🥴
That's sad about cherry back then there was a draft and anyone like should not even pass the physical
Fox was a poor choice for this film and it clearly shows
Totally disagree. Fox was fantastic. He reached a whole new level with this film. His career was cut short due to illness.
I disagree. I think Fox played this role very well. I loved and sympathize with his character.
Can pls somebody downloading this best movie.
A real command of the blues genre
