Acerca deste filme

Director Stanley Kubrick rips the skin from the face of war to expose the dehumanizing effect of the military on the people fed to its emotional meat grinder in Full Metal Jacket. Through the eyes of an 18-year-old recruit--from his first days in the seeming hell of Marine Corps boot camp as his superiors try to strip of him his individuality and re-create him as a Marine, to the hell of the 1968 Tet offensive, Kubrick reveals the damage done to the collective human soul by the inhumanity of war. Based on the novel The Short-Timers by Gustav Hasford.

Let's be honest The Vietnam war was a war American men should not have fought in, thousands of underage kids fighting in a proxy war which was brought on by a false flag.. This film is a true reflection of how these brave souls were treated in the their service to their country , and shows you the reality of boot camp and the true cost of wars and its futility.
