    This is such a great and classic movie. It’s been a number of years since I saw it last, but this is the best it has ever looked. The picture quality looks fantastic in 4K. Very clean and detailed image especially in the first half. The second half of the movie has a little more grain, but still looks great. HDR brings new life to the scenes and makes this look like it was recently filmed. The SteelBook looks awesome as well.

    I love the movie but I hated my shipping experience. The movie came to my house and the case was cracked as was the disc itself so I had to return it.

    If you have lived with the cattle or under a rock Full Metal Jacket is the movie to see. This 1987 Stanley Kubrick classic is a must see. Well unless your a millennial that either needs safe spaces, eats tide pods, can not handle yelling, loud noises, insults, anything gluten, or expects crap for free from Bernie Sanders. This movie is for you.

    Whole Movie is a War Classic

    Almost everyone who has seen Full Metal Jacket loves the first half in basic training, with R. Lee Ermey as Gunnery Sergeant Hartman destroying and building back up young men into vicious killers, and the consequential mental breakdown of Private Leonard "Gomer Pyle" Lawrence, played fantastically by Vincent D'Onofrio. Half of viewers then tune out in the second half, when the protagonist, Private "Joker", is deployed to Vietnam, as it's much slower and bleaker. While it is no "Apocalypse Now", the second half does a great job of showing the results of the Vietnam War on both Vietnam the country and the psyches of combatants on both sides. In 4K with HDR, the details of the sets and outdoor shots give the film an even better look than before. If you watched it before and only remember liking the first half, I suggest giving it another shot. If you've never seen it before, behind "The Shining" it makes for a pretty good intro movie into Stanley Kubrick's filmography.

    Even though I’ve seen this movie many times I decided to buy the DVD. I’m glad I did. It had been several years since I watched this movie and it was even better than I remembered.

    As with many of Stanley Kubrick's films, this is an absolute classic. There are so many memorable moments and R. Lee Ermey is such an incredible character in this.

    This blu ray was $20 dollars on Amazon and only $8 on here. You bet that I bought it off of here after seeing that price difference.

    Stanley Kubrick's Vietnam war masterpiece

    If you're not familiar with Full Metal Jacket then I'd strongly encourage a watch. It's surprisingly not as brutal as other war films but that's not to say it isn't action packet because the second half certainly is. It's basically a story about humanity that shows how people in war are treated and dehumanized to become killing machines. Masterfully made with nice steelbook packaging courtesy of Best Buy. One note would be the paint on my disc was very fresh and made the top not smooth and when I received a replacement it had the same issue. This never happened to me with a 4K disc or BestBuy exclusive steelbook before so hopefully never happens again.

    Full Metal Jacket: Never Gets Old!

    I remember seeing the movie many years ago in the movie house and watching it a few times on cable. I decided to add it to my movie collection. Lee Ermey scares the daylights out of anyone who is contemplating joining the service as he was a DI during his military career. While the film, accurately, portrays the TET Offensive, and how the government media complex really operates at least during that time period, you are drawn in with a foreboding sense of doom as you see Pvt. Pyle descend into moral depravity . The character study of each Marine particularly Hartman/Pvt Joker/Pyle each profoundly effect each other's live and sadly Hartman is murdered and Pvt Pile commits suicide. Pvt Joker ends up battle hardened before he sets foot in Vietnam and becomes a "combat correspondent" however more the former than the later. The scenery and battle scenes are realistic and does not sugar coat anything. This DVD is a must for any serious collector of Kubrick films or Vietnam flicks.

    Lee Ermey was an actual drill sergeant. I have actually experienced in person many of his insults, from my own drill Sargent. The story does reflect how worthless this war was.

    It was AMAZING! It teaches me a lot about what they were like in war. I am actually learning about it right now in school and this movie helped me get an A+ on my science paper! Thank you so much to everyone who made this movie it really helped me out in school and in life. It was a great plot twist when the "fat guy" was getting punished in really terrible ways and then killed there captain and then killed himself wow I thought he would just be happy that he learned how to move his gun but I was wrong....... I am not gonna spoil anymore so if you see this before the movie........................................... GO WATCH IT IT'S SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO GOOD!
