Important film

Rating: 10/10 (4 May 2005)

I really liked this film. It was different from your average war movie. It seems to me that a lot of war movies glorify war. But apocalypse now sticks right in your face with all the insanity and you just realize that war really is demented.
There are some long sequences people get bored with, but they were interesting to me.
I don't think apocalypse now is the most exciting or entertaining film, but i think its an important war film like a classic anti war book.
My history teacher told us in high school, we should all see this movie. I agree, and so i give it a ten on the basis that its an important film in our society. I also have to say that the visual effects are excellent and the special effects are O.K. The original music scores aren't very good, but they set the mood well. They make the setting very creepy.
