Advantages: Newly Remastered Disadvantages: Bad if you don't like war films
Out of all the war films about Vietnam, Platoon and Hamburger Hill being some of the most popular, Full Metal Jacket stands out there as the forerunner.
Based on the novel "The Short-Timers" by Gustav Hasford, the film is essentially split into two stories linked by a number of characters. The film follows a new recruit, Joker, with his fellow soldiers through basic training and right into the conflict in Vietnam. The first half of this film is the chilling tale of military brutality mainly at the hands of the drill Sgt Hartman (who was played by ex-marine Lee Ermey).

◊^^^Synopsis^^^◊
Full Metal Jacket is Stanley Kubrick?s painful depiction of the lives of new marine trainees as they go through training, graduate and finally end up in Vietnam.

Album Notes
The album cover photo finds Adam Green looking spiffy, groomed, and downright hipster-ish, and the production on this fourth album is polished and sophisticated, boasting strings and noir-ish, lounge-y touches.
