Plot
Hailed by critics as a masterpiece, Casualties Of War is based on the true story of a squad of soldiers caught in the moral quagmire of wartime Vietnam. Witness to a vile crime, Private Eriksson (Michael J. Fox, TV's, "Spin City") is forced to stand alone against his fellow soldiers and commanding officer Sergeant Meserve (Academy Award®-winner Sean Penn, 2004, Best Actor, Mystic River), a powerful and charismatic man pushed over the edge of barbarism by the terror and brutality of combat.

With sweeping scope, action and raw power, master filmmaker Brian DePalma (The Untouchables) creates a devastating and unforgettable tale of one man's quest for sanity and justice amidst the chaos of war.
