Awesome. D'Onofrio's role-playing is totally great.

Love it during the basic training, but the rest was kinda blah. I could watch the first half over and over again though.

funny, sad, unreal, scary, critical - one of the most impressive vietnam-war movies!

It's going to make you really uncomfortable, but it's a very powerful film.

Tale of two half's. 1st half awesome, 2nd half meh. Go with Platoon or Apocalypse Now for the best Vietnam Movies.

I loathed this. Full of disgusting behavior and gratuitous expletives. Maybe realistic, I've never been enlisted, but it's a total attack on your sensibilities.

Pursued_by_Raptors
Going withe the general theme here, 1st half was amazing, but it did dwindle away and not live up to the opening. Good watch though for anyone!

Laechis
Like a lot of Kubrick movies, I really liked one part to it, which unfortunately wasn't the entire movie. The first half is great, the 2nd half is not so much.

It's one of the two or three hallmark culture films about the Vietnam war. Focusing both on he mental breakdown of enlisted and the culture in an unpopular war.

I love me some Kubrick, but I just couldn't get into this one. And pardon me, but D'Onofrio is just a little too over-the-top. Rewatch The Shining instead.

Jordon
OVER-HYPED. The only reason this movie has a name for itself is that the first-half of the movie has one-liners that frat guys can spew in communication class.
