Sgt. Hartman: "Bullshit! It looks to me like
the best part of you ran down the crack of your mama's ass and ended up as a brown
stain on the mattress. I think you've been cheated. Where the hell you from anyway
private?"
Cowboy: "Sir, Texas, Sir."
Sgt. Hartman: "Holy dogshit! Texas! Only steers
and queers come from Texas Private Cowboy and you don't look much like a steer

Colonel: Marine, what is that button on your body
armour?
Joker: A peace symbol sir.
Colonel:
Where'd you get it?
Joker: I don't remember sir.
Colonel: What is that you've got written on your
helmet?
Joker: "Born to Kill" sir.
Colonel: You write "Born to Kill" on you
helmet, and you wear a peace button. What's that supposed to be, some kind of
sick joke?
Joker: No, sir.
Colonel:
Well what is it supposed to mean?
Joker: I don't
know, sir.
Colonel: You don't know very much
do you?
Joker: No sir.
Colonel:
You better get your head and your ass wired together or I will take a giant shit
on you.
Joker: Yes sir.
Colonel:
Now answer my question, or you'll be standing tall before The Man.
Joker:
I think I was trying to suggest something about the duality of man sir.
Colonel:
The what?
Joker: The duality of man, the Jungian
thing, sir.
Colonel: Who's side are you on, son?
Joker: Our side, sir.
Colonel:
Don't you love your country?
Joker: Yes, sir.
Colonel: Well how about getting with the program?
Why don't you jump on the team and c'mon in for the big win?
Joker:
Yes, sir.
Colonel: Son, all I've ever asked of
my Marines is for them to obey my orders as they would the word of God. We are
here to help the Vietnamese because inside every gook, there is an American trying
to get out. It's a hardball world, son. We've got to try to keep our heads until
this peace craze blows over.
Joker: Aye aye, sir.

Review:
"I am in
a world of shit." The training in the boot camp compels one character to say this
as he is holding a loaded gun with a demonic face. He’s become a killing machine,
a body without thought, or has he? This movie is broken up into two phases, the
boot camp and the Vietnam war. I love the one liners thrown out in the movie and
so will you, that is if you have a black sense of humor. -Review by Mark Caldwell

Review:
Full Metal Jacket is Stanley Kubricks (2001: A Space Odyssey, Eyes Wide Shut,
Paths of Glory, The Shining) disturbing depiction of the Vietnam War and the process
that turns people into trained killers. The first half of the film, which takes
place on a Marine boot-camp (Paris Island), is so captivating you truly can't
take your eyes off the screen. This brilliance stems from two blistering performances
by R. Lee Ermey and Vincent D'Onofrio. I've read that Ermey was actually a former
US Marines Drill Instructor who was hired as a consultant on how to drill. He
performed a demonstration on videotape in which he yelled obscene insults and
abuse nonstop for fifteen minutes without repeating himself, or even flinching
(despite being continuously pelted with tennis balls and oranges). Apparently,
Kubrick saw the tape and cast Ermey on the spot. D'Onofrio's transformation to
a madman is magnificent. It's obvious from the start that his fuck-ups will be
a example for Hartman to ridicule. I may be mistaken, but D'Onofrio pulled a DeNiro
(Raging Bull) by gaining 70 pounds for the role. Pyle's brutal beating by his
fellow troops and his homicidal/suicidal showdown in the barracks head are two
of the most gut wrenching scenes I've ever seen. Matthew Modine (Birdy,
Short Cuts) is quite good and bridges the two halves of the film together. Full
Metal Jacket was nominated for Best Screenplay Based on Material from another
medium. -Review by Aaron Caldwell
