I first heard of Faith of Our Fathers several months ago and never had the chance to watch it, until recently and it was well worth the wait.
In 1994, John Paul and Wayne go on a five day road trip to the Vietnam Wall in Washington DC to see their fathers’ names. Along the way, reading those letters, they begin to get an understanding of who their fathers were and how they died. Trials and mishaps, both funny and sad, complicate the road trip for the boys. The horrors of war and the testing of faith manifest themselves for the young men in Vietnam. Ultimately, in parallel stories – 25 years apart – the fathers and sons are bound together forever.
Special Features of the DVD:
We watched this movie as a family and overall was very pleased with it. I couldn’t imagine growing up and not knowing your father, but this is a reality for some. This is a very touching movie that is filled with every emotion possible. I would say the one thing that I wasn’t crazy about in the movie was Wayne. The character can get a little annoying at times, but I totally get where they were going with it.
