When the U.S. Army engages irreverent, nonconformist radio deejay Adrian Cronauer, it unleashes a secret, if unpredictable, weapon: laughter. Academy Award(R) winner Robin Williams (Best Supporting Actor, GOOD WILL HUNTING, 1997) shakes up 1965 Saigon in the role that garnered him his very first Oscar(R) nomination. Imported by the military to host an early a.m. radio show, Cronauer (Williams) blasts the formerly serene, sanitized airwaves with a constant barrage of rapid-fire humor and the hottest hits from back home. The G.I.s love him, but the top brass is up in arms. Riddled with sidesplitting comic salvos, bittersweet bombshells, and hot '60s rock 'n' roll, this landmark film chronicles one man's raucous Saigon adventures amidst a world gone mad.

Here, it is beautifully shown how great of an actor and comedian Robin Williams was. It's funny, it's disarming, and we get it all in a fairly dramatic film. It's a film about war, but mostly it's a film about people and how they behave. It's as if Robin Williams and a few people around him were actually normal in a time and place that didn't really favor them. Still, they tried to make a change. And it worked.

Three and a half stars. What are we left to say? Robin Williams' performance can be both the main asset and the main pitfall of this film. Some may adore the plain-spoken soldier Cronauer and devour his every joke, while others may be annoyed that some of his jokes are simply and easily misunderstood. I was somewhere in the middle, but I can't deny Williams' superb acting. As for the rest of the film, it was a shame it had such a bland storyline with the Vietnamese boy that could have been more emotional, and I also didn't really want to believe that a bunch of Vietnamese people who are learning English at school and obviously having trouble with it would understand the machine gun speech of "Teacher Cronauer" so well.

Gooood Mooorning, Czechia! Here we have a movie with a slightly different perspective on Vietnam than usual. If you were expecting a cool action massage where Williams crushes the molecules of an endless line of rabid Asians, you will wait in vain for the whole two hours. This movie is about radio with an attitude, satire and jokes. In other words, about things that listeners of the miserable radio channels in the Czech Basin can only dream of. So, Good Night, not just to Bohemia, but to Moravia and Silesia too.

A slightly different perspective on the horrors of the Vietnam War. A view through the eyes of a man filled with humour, enthusiasm and love for others, something he applies first and foremost in all conditions. The view is all the more impressive and authentic because even in the soul of such a person, war eventually makes its one-way path. Masterfully acted, expertly shot and written so that even Vietnamese people can watch it with a bit of benevolence, with an emphasis on friendship that should not be hindered by language barriers or cultural and racial differences. But I can't give it a full score, because without Robin Williams a good half of the humorous situations would go to waste... 85%
