Apocalypse Now is complete madness and insanity. The complete madness and insanity is what compels viewers to fall in love with the movie. The movie is, I believe, one of the best depictions of the Vietnam war, with amazing performances from actor best known for his role in The Godfather franchise, Marlon Brando. The movie produced a fresh and new view on the art of film making and story telling with a powerful punch. Fantasy and reality are infused in the darkness of the war movie. To have a film so bloody, unapologetic and astounding at this time was a brave move by director Coppola. A must watch but not for the weak hearted.

Absolutely brilliant. A perfect adaptation of Conrad’s “Heart of Darkness” and a well timed piece of film history. The first half immerses you in the horrors of Vietnam while getting you used to how things really were there. Then the second half turns even the horrors of war on its head in a surprising and disturbing sequence of events. Truly a must watch.

전체적 완성도 굳. 커츠 대령이 등장하고 난해해졌음. 말론브란도가 원작도 읽지않고 준비를 현장에서 급하게 했다던데 단순히 미스테리한 인물로 포장하기엔 설명안된게 너무 많음.
