The greatest Vietnam War Movie Ever!!!

Rating: 10/10 (31 December 2014)

Apocalypse Now is one of my favorite films of all time! I just love it, there is simply nothing wrong with it!!! Perfect acting, perfect direction, perfect writing, perfectly shot and perfectly edited.
I think Apocalypse Now is the only war film to truly examine the dark sides of the soul of man. And the film does it perfectly, by portraying most characters insane. It is a great subject matter, and an important one, to explore how war affects you psychologically. It's just perfect!!
I think the most perfectly shot sequence in the whole movie is the village attack at about 40 minutes into the film. With all the logistics, extras, special effects etc. it's a miracle that Coppola finished the film.
The Redux is, you know, it was good, and it contained well-structured scenes in it, but it slowed the film down. So whenever I am going to watch Apocalypse Now, I'm watching the original cut.
So I totally recommend Apocalypse Now to anyone interested in the Vietnam war, or just war movies. Like I said, it got great acting, directing, writing and editing. Apocalypse Now is AWESOME!!! 9/10
