Full Metal Jacket - A Stanley Kubrick Movie

Full Metal Jacket (1987) is an Academy Award-nominated[1] Stanley Kubrick war film based on the novel The Short-Timers by Gustav Hasford. The title refers to the type of ammunition used by infantry riflemen. The film portrays the urban Vietnam War fought by the U.S. Marines. In 2005, Full Metal Jacket was placed #5 in Channel 4's The 100 Greatest War Films poll.

A group of new recruits in the United States Marine Corps has just arrived at Parris Island for indoctrination and basic training. Their drill instructor is Gunnery Sergeant Hartman (R. Lee Ermey), who wastes no time in starting the process of breaking the men down. The Vietnam War is in full swing, and his job is to produce trained killers who will not hesitate when the decisive moment arrives. The film's first section focuses on the physical and psychological treatment of recruit Leonard Lawrence (Vincent D'Onofrio), whom Hartman nicknames "Gomer Pyle." The second part of the film opens in Vietnam in January.
