Full Metal Jacket

1987, Movie, 1h 57min

Director Stanley Kubrick rips the skin from the face of war to expose the dehumanizing effect of the military on the people fed into its meat grinder in this lacerating and darkly comic journey through a human-made hell. Through the eyes of an eighteen-year-old recruit (Matthew Modine)—from his first days in the Marine Corps boot camp as his superiors try to strip of him his individuality and re-create him as a Marine, to the horrors of the 1968 Tet Offensive in Vietnam—FULL METAL JACKET examines the damage war inflicts on the collective human soul with a cutting irony and terrifying intensity that few films have matched.

A hardy Kubrikian effort that warms on you with repeated viewings, that is, if you love Kubrick long time.

Frequently asked questions

What is Full Metal Jacket about? Toggle content

In Full Metal Jacket, Stanley Kubrick presents a raw and unflinching portrayal of the dehumanizing effects of military training and the devastating consequences of war. The film follows a group of young Marine recruits as they undergo brutal training at Parris Island, led by the ruthless and foul-mouthed Gunnery Sergeant Hartman. Through their journey, Kubrick explores the psychological and emotional toll that military conditioning takes on the recruits, particularly on Private Joker, who struggles to maintain his individuality amidst the chaos. As they prepare for deployment in Vietnam, the recruits face harsh realities that challenge their understanding of humanity and morality. With its powerful performances, stark cinematography, and thought-provoking themes, Full Metal Jacket is a masterpiece that lingers long after its haunting conclusion.
