Incredible.....

Rating: 10/10 (12 January 2010)

Based on the novel The Short-Timers by Gustav Hasford, comes 'Full Metal Jacket', which undoubtedly is one of the finest films ever made in the history of cinema! Incredible!!! Stanley Kubrick takes us back to a squad of U.S. Marines through their United States Marine Corps Recruit Training and depicts some of the experiences of two of them in the Tet Offensive (1968) during the Vietnam War. 'Full Metal Jacket' is a so-so-so good, that I was left awe-struck. The first 40-minutes shows as how 'Maggots' turn into 'Heroes'. The rest of the 80-minutes is on the war-back-drop. The climax is epic, beautifully thought & executed.
If given a chance My Review for 'Full Metal Jacket' would never end. An outstanding film, where any praise seems UN-Fulfilled.
Miss anything, I mean anything, but watch 'Full Metal Jacket' right now. 1,000 Thumbs Up!
