Full Metal Jacket: Deluxe Edition

In Vietnam The Wind Doesn't Blow It Sucks

A superb ensemble cast falls in for action in Stanley Kubrick's brilliant saga about the Vietnam War and the dehumanizing process that turns people into trained killers. Joker, Animal Mother, Gomer, Eightball, Cowboy and more – all are plunged into a boot-camp hell pitbulled by a leatherlung D.I. (Lee Ermey) who views the would-be devil dogs as grunts, maggots or something less.

The action is savage, the story unsparing, the dialogue spiked with scathing humor. Full Metal Jacket, from its rigors of basic training to its nightmare of combat in Hue City, scores a cinematic direct hit.

Critic Reviews:

• " If his considerable achievement in this long- awaited film falls short of his Olympian standards, there is a reason that ought to give Kubrick some satisfaction. The world has caught up with Kubrick and what he has to say. " – Desmond Ryan

• " There is a real fear at the heart of this monstrously armored, desperately defensive film. " – Dave Kehr

• " Kubrick had a way of making the audience become invested in the characters of his films and created some truly memorable ones. " – Allison Rose
