Movie Reviews of Full Metal Jacket
Movie Review: It all came together
Summary: 5 Stars
Great writing, acting, directing and editing make this Vietnam epic IMHO, the curve setter of the genre, as well as one of the best war movies ever. The film overflows with memorable cinematic "moments"; witty throw off lines (particularly those ad libbed by drill sergeant turned actor Lee Ermey)and a quirky, high voltage tension. Best of all, director Stanley Kubrick tells his story without the usual "Vietnam" pontifications and guilt mongering. Wow!Movie Review: Best Vietnam War Picture Ever!
Summary: 5 Stars
I am an ex-marine. I got a chill down my spine when I first watched this movie, and I still do. The Vietnam segments were ok in comparison to the bootcamp scenes. The bootcamp scenes are so realistic and genuine, awesome images and sounds! Whenever I want to remember my days in the corps, this is the movie I watch! The academy for the phony tough, and the crazy brave! Amen! Semper FidelisMovie Review: Hell and hell
Summary: 5 Stars
great movie. Most people indicate that the first half is the true movie and the 2nd part falters. True boot camp is the better part of the movie but the realization is that nothing prepares you for the chaos that later ensues. I own this movie now and watch it over again without tiring. excellent acting by thedrill sargeant and mathew modine, vincent donofrioMovie Review: uncompromising and yes, great
Summary: 5 Stars
too often terms like 'great' are attributed to popular or even just competent films which don't deserve anything close to such praise. this is not one of those films. full metal jacket is an experience; approach it with intelligence and sensitivity and you cannot help but be changed. buy this movie, watch it, and walk away different.Movie Review: Jesus H. Christ!
Summary: 5 Stars
This is the best and most realistic Vietnam war movie ever made. If you are looking for a true account of the war and not a glamorized version, you've found it. I am a marine, and I know what the Island is like. (That's Paris Island, SC) You can't pass up the oppurtunity to see the best war film ever recorded. Kubrick is a master!
