The Horror

Rating: 10/10 (1 December 2004)

The movie is about a trip that is made by Captain Willard (Martin Sheen) on a boat that is under the command of Chief Phillips (Albert Hall). They are heading to Cambodia to kill a renegade colonel who's raining down terror in the area. (A nice detail: Laurence Fishburne plays Mister Clean, one of the crewmen on board the vessel.) The world seems to get more unreal with every moment they come closer to their target
Simply the best movie ever made. A surrealistic trip on the rivers of Vietnam leading all the way into Cambodia. With some outstanding performances of Martin Sheen, Robert Duvall, Dennis Hopper and of course Marlon Brando in a breathtaking role. It could be said that his performance as renegade colonel who's leading a group of natives deep in the jungles, is almost as brilliant as his Don Vito Corleone performance in another Francis Ford Coppola masterpiece: The Godfather. This movie also contains one of the greatest war scenes ever fabricated. The attack on a village under the music of Wagner is just brilliant.
There are so many things I would like to say about this move but in the end you should go look for your self. In my opinion there isn't any other movie that even comes close to this movie.
