I love the smell of raspberries in the morning.

Rating: 1/10 (5 December 2005)

Raspberry awards that is.
In short, this movie has an unforgettable title, unforgettable PR, yet highly forgettable story.
This movie was suppose to be about the journey, and from that first step it got us lost.
It only has 2, maybe 3 memorable scenes. Memorable being you actually remember it. The one is Martin Sheen's "I can't believe they want this man dead." And that was only memorable when it was parodied by Hot Shots: Part Deux.
And there is the scene where Marlon Brando is washing his head. And that is only memorable during a dream sequence from an episode of Buffy the Vampire Slayer.
And the infamous quote, "I love the smell of napalm in the morning," is hardly that inspiring. If at all.
It's been said that Apocalypse Now is good, but just slow. There is no such thing as a good slow movie. Any movie that has the ability to grab your attention every step of the way is a good movie no matter how long it is. Apocalypse Now doesn't do that at all. Nothing to grab your attention condemning it a bad movie.
All in all, this movie is boring and highly overrated. And you know it's bad, really bad if you only remember those scenes from parodies.
