Full Metal Jacket

Well, yes, its been quite a long time since I wrote my last review, but well, it was a harsh year.
So, lets starta again!
Full Metal Jacket (1987)
Kubrik is one of my favorite directors, but I don´t know why every time I go the the Video Rental, I forget to rent his movies. In this ocation, I remembered and took "Nacido para Matar" (Born to Kill) wich was Full Metal Jacket.
I was surprised to find the actor from, I think is Law an Order Criminal Intent or something like it, a really great actor with a whole retard face wich transmites tension and paranoya.
With the guy who plays the little boy`s father in Transporter 2, as a protagonist, this was an exelent film, I was really surprised how much opf the movie is dedicated to the training, and just the second half is about Vietam.
The feelings this movie transmits are utterly shoking, and comunication between characters builds up the real `Nam experience.
Really a great movie, totally recomendable.
See you nex time!

  1. This is the first film I ever watched as a Film Studies student. Our lecturer introduced it as follows: This is a story about two deaths. Which one do you sympathise with more?
