Full Metal Jacket
“Bullshit. I bet you could suck a golf ball through a garden hose.”
This movie alone has solidified my answer that Kubrick is and will be in the upcoming future the greatest director of all time. The 3rd 5 star movie from a single director and making the second best war film of all time.
The first act is so beyond perfect I could even put this in my top 10 of the second act of the movie was even close to as good.
Zero criticisms of the second act. You just can’t keep up that level of cinema for an entire 2 hours. Every character, every one liner had me laughing, tense, excited. I went through every single emotion and then some.
Already has high expectations and I was blown out of the water. “How many times can Vietnam war movies be made?” SHUT THE HELL UP… if they are as good as this I’d watch these movies for the rest of my life.
