There aren't a whole heck of a lot of movies telling the audience that Vietnam was a fun place to be, and that the fellas sent there to fight for Uncle Sam came back better off than they were before. Born on the Fourth of July (1989) is most certainly not the exception to that rule. Based on the 1976 autobiography of Ron Kovic, who was literally born on July 4th, the film kicks off with Ron (Tom Cruise) leaving his suburban New York home to join the Marines, despite his WWII Vet dad (Raymond J. Barry) doing his best to dissuade him from joining the military. Ron should've listened to his dad, since not long after boot camp he's shipped off to Nam, where he accidentally shoots one of his own men during a firefight. After witnessing the horrors of war including a village that's been wiped off the map, Ron gets shot and becomes paralyzed from the waist down. Forced to live his life wheelchair bound, Ron returns home to a lengthy stint in a veteran’s hospital, followed by an alcoholic existence in Mexico. Bloated and rocking the long hair of a hippy, eventually the wounded war hero finds solace and redemption in becoming an outspoken anti-war activist and enemy of Richard Nixon. Speaking of dick, while resting in the hospital Cruise teases us with half a cheek peaking out for the camera while some orderlies help him take a dump through a hole in his bed. He might not be able to feel below the waist ever since he was shot, but Mr. Man sure felt a tingle down below seeing that bun shot! That's all the Born porn there is, but later, we see him having a total meltdown while some hooker is naked and trying to bone him. That poor fire-working girl just wanted to give some pie to Mr. Fourth of July! Tag us in if the handicapped man is looking for a handy! Tom Cruise was the hottest vet a man could get in Born on the Fourth of July!
