4.0 out of 5 stars Thought Provoking and at times harrowing, 14 Jan 2002
By A Customer
From normal every day life, hanging about with friends to the brutal battle fields of Vietnam.
This film takes you on a trip from Australian middle class family life to what happens when conscription takes the young men from their domestic bliss and into a life they never thought they would see.
You see what happens on the battlefield and how this changes happy go lucky guys into killing machines, yet at the same time see the way their families attempt to cope with their losses while sons are away and daughters join the anti war groups......Like a good book you wont be able to stop watching

4.0 out of 5 stars VIETNAM - A PERSONAL JOURNEY, 1 Oct 2003
By E C Crick (London, London United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
This mini-series is a deeply moving account of one families experiences during the Vietnam War. It also stars Nicole Kidman in one of her first TV roles.
It covers the experiences of a young Australian soldier sent out to Vietnam on a tour of duty and how his family deals with this. They are ardently against the war and protest for withdrawal. This hurts the young soldier hugely as he feels they are against him. Beautiful, funny and sad, Vietnam covers all aspects of the war years with great sensivity.

4.0 out of 5 stars moving, 1 April 2006
I watched this on tv when I was sixteen and missed the last episode but I bought this and watched the whole lot again. It was worth it. Set during the vietnam war, its the story of one australian family although not close it goes from when the war was happening elsewhere and not really their problem to affecting each of them. A few disturbing yet necessary scenes to show how vietnam could have affected the men fighting the war.
All in all, I enjoyed watching this again and the music was great. ...all from the sixties. Well worth a watch.
I gave it a 4 as I could have done without listening to the politics in the film.
