This is mainly taken from my favourite part of the film which is the parts with the infamous foul-mouthed drill Sergeant. This is all a very interesting concept and even though this may sound to you like an extremely gruelling experience it actually has a great touch of dark humour. None of the men really understand what they are fighting for. The film shows how men change as they go through war and studies how many men just go out for the idea of "grabbing a gun." This is a very chilling idea, the fact that these men don't want to save innocent people, but rather use it as a chance for their own personal amusement. The second half of the film studies the real war zone, the thing all these young men have been waiting for. The first half of the film is amusing yet a painfully gruelling image of men becoming trained killers at a marine boot camp. Lee Ermey, Arliss Howardįull Metal Jacket feels kind of like two different films. Starring: Matthew Modine, Vincent D'Onofrio, Adam Baldwin, R. Written by: Stanley Kubrick, Michael Herr and Gustav Hasford What the MPAA Rating should be: R (for violence and suggestive language)
