    Kubrick in 4K = always a win!

    It’s Kubrick. You know the movie is good. The picture quality is amazing on this 4K, especially in the second half when more colors are on display. It looks like film, so if you hate grain, this won’t sway you, but it does look about as good as it will probably ever look on home media.

    I watched this movie years ago, and it has always been one of my favorites. For this reason, when I saw this movie on sale and in 4K UHD, I knew I had to get it. The movie plot is very compelling and gives you a good idea of what it was like to be a grunt during the Vietnam War.

    Any Stanley Kubrick on 4k is a good thing. With some of his titles already on offer in 4k, it was time FMJ had it’s really. Joker, cowboy, snowball and private pile are all here for this Vietnam War title to remember. Buy it, watch it, share it with friends

    Impressive transfer. GRAIN is needed or the soap opera effect would ruin this. Just looking at the detail in the barracks, you can read out whats in lockers, posters on the wall etc. Detail overload has begun

    To me one of most accurate portrayals of basic training ever put on film, and this is what I have always loved about the movie. The second half I have come to appreciate after repeat viewings over time. I just look at it as two different movies, and it works for me.

    Probably the definitive home video presentation of Kubrick's 1987 Vietnam saga. As with most of his films, FULL METAL JACKET is a singular experience. There is no other Vietnam picture quite like it. Warners has done a magnificent job with the transfer.

    A classic Vietnam war movie, but can be polarizing. This release is excellent and the movie looks amazing. There are not any new special features from the previous release, but this is still an excellent presentation.

    Stanley Kubrick's Full Metal Jacket is a classic movie that everyone needs to watch. I was never in the military, but the drill sergeant in this movie amazing. It is one of my favorite war movies. It was nice to add the 4k version to my collection.

    The film has never looked better yet still holds the grittiness fans have come to expect from the movie. Growing up in a military family, it was a must see for all us Military kids. Yep, no one wanted to go to Paris Island after this! As an adult, I can appreciate the direction and style of the film. It’s not for everyone, it’s not one of those disc I’ll watch every year-but it will be one I’ll revisit from time to time. It’s not an easy watch; it’s made to make u feel uncomfortable and it does that very well.

    It’s been a good year for Kubrick. 2001, The Shining, & now Full Metal Jacket. Fantastic 4k transfer, definitely worth upgrading from the blu ray. Only a few more releases to go for a full 4k Kubrick collection!

    I watched this movie before I shipped off to boot camp in 1988 and this movie was spot on. My boot camp experience was very similar to what was depicted in the movie. Even thou it was set in the 60's and I went to boot camp in the 80's.

    Great 4K transfer for an instant classic war movie. Audio is also improved when it comes to effects as well as how good the soundtrack of the movie is overall the movie sounds better on this 4K Blu-ray disc.

    This is a classic Kubrick anti-war movie that focuses on the dehumanizing of the soldier rather than the hypocrisy of leadership explored in Paths of Glory.

    What can I say it's 4k. Got it just to try my new LG 4K player. Sound lags some what on play back only of this movie in my player. The first half is the best. Gunny sergeant is one tuff cookie.

    great movie , it's a little outdated for the younger folks. It has a good story line and has some very interesting sites to see. One of those movies you can watch several times and still see things you had missed seeing before.

    The first half of this movie is incredible. Absolutely top-notch stuff. But, as soon as they deploy, the movie falls into a cookie-cutter vibe of "been there, done that." However, the boot camp footage is worth the price.

    Amazing quality 4K Blu-ray. One of the best 4K films I own, I love the aspect ratio as it is full screen, and the audio is just as great as the 4K image. I would highly recommend purchasing it for the collection!

    The 4k release is very good! Video is excellent and audio very clear. There are not a lot of audio effects yet still better than any version to date. The new video transfer is definitely and improvement over prior releases.
