Two movies for the price of one!

Rating: 9/10 (16 August 1999)

I remember when I saw this movie so many times I knew every line by heart.
Every single scene became memorable. Even the Vietnamese prostitute scene,
made later popular in the 2 Live Crew song.
Before Saving Private Ryan this used to be my favorite war film ever. Now ranks #2. Each half of the film is like a complete different movie. You can watch the first half, turn off the tape, and get already an all time classic. The second half unfortunately lacks of private Pyle and the drill sergeant which are the best performances. However, as many Kubrick's films, this one has survived
gracefully the test of time.
