About the war

Rating: 10/10 (3 June 2004)

Apocalypse Now is an excellent film. Like other -specially about Vietnam-, I don't think is a war movie. Its a movie that deeply reflects on war brutality. At this point, I see Marlon Brando, Robert Duvall and Martin Sheen at their very best. This detail also make a huge difference with "Heart of Darkness", the novel of Conrad. I'm pretty sure that "Apocalypse Now" should be remembered for the reflection without concessions on all the war stuff. Of course, is not a commercial movie. Maybe for this, we should thanks Francis Ford Coppola. Is there many guys ready for movies like this, in this days?
