Great film by Stanley Kubrick. Movie looks fantastic on UHD Blu-ray.

Love Kubrick and I love this movie. Would’ve been better with a digital code but still happy I bought it!

Solid 4k transfer here. Slight layer of grain throughout. Some shots were a bit more focused than others, but that is mostly due to directors intent. The 4k PQ seems to improve as the film goes on. Im very happy with this transfer. Very smooth with all the scratches and tears patched up. I wouldnt demo this disc if im trying to show off my panel, but it does make the film look good.

Stanley Kubrick the master made this movie in 1987 and it will still rock your world…especially in 4K!

A great movie I liked before I love the 4k it's great

If you are a Marine and haven't seen or at least heard about this... you must be a fictional Marine and not know a dam thing about the value of good box of crayons and a dirty window. Fix yourself!

This movie was sad, empowering and action packed. It reminded me of my basic training days and the times conflicts we faced as young soldiers. Awesome movie and very well directed.

This was one of the first war movies I ever saw, and I still love it to this day. It sits front and center in the war movie section of my collection.

FMJ is a great movie and this 4k UDH version is faithful to the original.

A classic when it comes to a Kubric movie. Great visuals, doesnt pull any punches, story right in your face.

If anyone is reading this review....dude, c'mon it's Full Metal Jacket in 4K...just buy it.

One of the best 4k movies I've ever purchased & seen.

Great movie for the prize. Best movies did they ever made great picture and quality sound

Realistic movie and great 4k quality and sound. Highly recommend.

Great movie, one of Kubrick's best, never looked better

Classic movie grusome entertaining 4k is awesome etc.

Great detail and color throughout the movie. Expect film grain and some intermittent softness considering this was shot on film over 30 years ago. HDR is not noticeable in the Parris Island scenes since there is not much that needs HDR. The only time it is noticeable is at the very end when Matthew Modine uses his flashlight when he gets fire watch duty. However, HDR is definitely an improvement for the scenes which take place in Vietnam. Most noticeable when fires and explosion occur. The sound quality is very good in terms of clarity of dialog and sound effects. There is some use of low frequency effects (when there is an explosion for example). There is no atmos which is a little disappointing. If you are fan of this movie, you should definitely have this in your collection.

This 4K of Full Metal Jacket looks better to me than my blu-ray from 2011 (and that disc still looks good to me) and that's why you upgrade, right? The movie itself is not a pretty picture and it never will be, so in order to justify the upgrade you need a good reason and the best reason is it's a Stanley Kubrick movie. As a fan I'm more than willing to upgrade but did I get my moneys worth? I personally think so. This 4K is rich in details and bold color schemes and the black levels look so much better. I'm satisfied I made the right choice and upgraded. I can't tell if the included blu-ray is the same as the 2011 disc I already have. It doesn't matter anyway because I'll probably never watch it again. It will make a cool coaster I guess.

There are no negatives for this movie-it is part of the old movie machinery where talent and experience counted the most, something that is looked at today with utmost derision and tangible hate, and the reason why the modern hellweird film production is dead to me. About the flick-divided into two parts-training and the actual war campaign with all its dead on veracity-the movie is the anathema for the feminist - pinko pc crowd, that has destroyed the last traces of intelligence and respect. 2hrs of brutal honesty, blood, suffering, gore, fear and bizarre humor. Enjoy!

The movies of Stanley Kubrick occupy a very high position in my hierarchy of great movies. So far all of Kubrick's movies which have been given the 4K treatment have been superlative. This one is no exception. The biggest difference for me is in the colors and of course the clarity and definition are superb. The audio is also noticeably improved from the last bluray release. I highly recommend this release even if you already have it in standard 1080p. it's a worthy investment if you love this movie.
