I love it! (ps: nudity is for showing feelings, not porn.)

Rating: Null/10 (8 April 2002)

I saw the original film a long time ago, but I liked the Redux version better. Much because it is longer, and I like long films. The scenes with the french is both good and brilliant, and one of my favorites. It adds more perspectives on the war, showing us that not only the superheros from the us were there, but also french colonial troops. It adds useful history, to tell us why it is like it is. This movie is not too long, it is rather too short.
It's a great anti-war movie masterpiece in the way it both portrays insanity and meaninglessness. One of, maybe the best of them. Platoon(where Martin Sheens son Charlie is starring) is also great, but shows the war in a different way(this is not a bad element), I love both films.
I read some complains about the nudity in the redux, how awful it is and meaningless, well it is not! A woman complain due to there's only showing nude women, but in fact the are nude men there (martin sheen in the beginning). The nudity in this films shows emotions and feelings and is bit nessescary. If the scenes had been films with clothes on it would not have been the same. The scenes has not been made to make the movie sell, because than I would have know it before I saw the movie. There is no place on the cover where the speak of nudity. When will you americans learn.
Martin Sheen is by the way brilliant as captain Williard and the same is Marlon Brando as Kurtz.
This is how a war film is made, not like that beyond bad Pearl Harbor.
10/10
