Full Metal Jacket - I didn't like it and I have no idea why is it one of the most rated movies.

Did you like Apocalypse Now?

Did you like Apocalypse Now?

I did, it's a great movie IMO. However I enjoyed first half of the movie better. Still, it's a top movie.

the first half of the movie is greatness, a meticulous portrayal of boot camp. I personally like the second half especially the camera work, but a lot of people feel "platoon" showed the war better.

Awesome!
And yeah, I agree with X about Full Metal Jacket. It's kind of a schizophrene movie since there is such a big difference between the first and second half. I loved the first half and was disappointed by the second half. However, I definitely need to watch it again sometime soon.

Full Metal Jacket is awesome. We saw the bootcamp scenes in history.

I agree. I thought it was going very well, however when that part ended I felt a great disappointment. It's like movie followed the most boring part of the war and totally not related to the movie. It's seriously like two separate movies.

I'll give Platoon a try, but I'll check out Thin Red Line first.

Have you seen any other Malick films? His movies are quite unlike any other director's, and you'll either love it or think it's the most pretentious shit ever. The voice-over is used for inner philosophical thoughts, and you have to keep in mind that it's a long slow-paced film.

Oh, and it has some of the most beautiful images you will ever see on film.

Make sure you watch it in full hd.

I think Casualties of War is a good under rated Vietnam war based movies. Stars Michael J Fox and Sean Penn.

This is Kubrick's finest war film and should be highlighted a lot more:
