No matter what you think of the script, it's impossible to dismiss what's up on the screen.

...HAMBURGER HILL pays heartfelt, richly deserved tribute to the young American soldiers who fought so valiantly...
Los Angeles Times
There are a couple of rocky moments, but the large cast of unknowns go through hell convincingly, and illustrate the randomness of mortality.

Time Out
A well-made Vietnam War film that narrows its attention to the men of a single platoon in a specific operation.
New York Times
Rating: 3/5 --
Serves as a grim reminder of what it was like for young men to live and die in the war in Vietnam.

Spirituality and Practice
Irvin, who shot a documentary in Vietnam in 1969, the year the action takes place, makes fine use of the Philippines locations and the verisimilitude supplied by the production team.

Product Description:
It was Vietnam, 1969, Hill 937, 10 days, 70 percent casualties. Those are the facts. This is the story: dodge the gunfire, get caught behind enemy lines, go into battle beside the brave young men who fought and died, and feel their desperation and futility.
