VIETNAM ON ACID!!!!!!

Rating: Null/10 (16 September 2001)

Surreal, and wierd but still powerful. Sort of a dream like view of vietnam. Overlong for the most part unrealistc. Of coarse Duvall was memorable, Sheen was okay. But Brando was at his best here. The scene where he talks about an atrocity he had witnessed, was a masterpiece. Dennis Hopper is hilarious, and the cinematography beautiful. But, I still thought the rest of the guys on the boat were phoney, how did any of these guys make it in country? They were either stupid or drugged up! That made no sense. Still its an outstanding film, though kubricks (full metal jacket) is still the measuring stick for war films.
