great...to a point

Rating: 9/10 (12 October 1999)

This is definetly one of Kubricks best and one of the best war films ever made....for the first half. After the bathroom scene and we finally head to Vietnam, the film seems to waver a little and concentrate on characters that should have been more developed int the first half, but wern't for one reason or another. It's defonitly a must for war movie and Kubrick fans but not for the casual movie watcher.
