Review: Full Metal Jacket (1987) · 12:09am Feb 4th, 2016
It is often said that making a truly anti-war film is impossible. That in showing the act of war, we glamorize it.
Well, apparently Stanley Kubrick didn't get that memo, because Full Metal Jacket shows just how horribly unglamorous and inglorious warfare can be, all while filtered through an almost sarcastic, deeply impersonal filter.
