Kubricks Full Metal Jacket deserves it place alongside 'The Deer Hunter', 'Platoon' and 'Apocalypse Now' as the definitive Vietnam war movies.FMJ is split into two distinct halfs, training and battle. This is unusual in a film, as the standard rule when writing a story is to have a beginning, a middle and an end. Obviously there are always exceptions, and in this case it works because the two part story reflects the grim reality of war. In truth if you can't survive the training there probably isn't much hope for you at war.The performances are uniformly excellent. More importantly the ending is really quite shocking. If you have seen Dr Strangelove you will realise that this probably reflected Kubricks own view on war. Watching the film again twenty years later, and baring in mind the problems in Iraq and Afganistan it does make you think.A great film.
