@unopercaso: Lee Ermey has a small role as the pilot of one of the helicopters who communicates via radio with Kilgore before the attack to the sound of the Ride of the Valkyries.

@omaha keep in mind that it’s a film from 1930 (the transition from silent to sound), so it has different dynamics from Apocalypse, but I would say that it is also one of those war films that seeks to be a film about humanity. And then it is also based on a novel, the famous "All Quiet on the Western Front" by Remarque. Young German students persuaded by their professor to enlist for World War I and finding themselves facing the collapse of all illusion and ideal. The final scene of the protagonist's ghost marching in the line looking back is chilling. A film that has influenced dozens of others about war, including the magnificent "The Big Red One" by Sam Fuller.

Stone is a craftsman, Coppola and Kubrick are exceptional talents. Nonetheless, for me, the film that best expresses the tragedy of war is "All Quiet on the Western Front" by Lewis Milestone.

@brusko, this is a visionary film, not a documentary. Half the crew was under the influence of drugs, primarily Sam Bottoms, the surfer, who was going strong on LSD and amphetamines, or alcohol like Federic Forrest (Chef) and Sheen (Willard), while Dennis Hopper gorged on both. Marlon Brando didn’t care about the script, let alone the approval of the higher-ups. If you don’t see it through this “sick” lens, it will seem absurd to you. After all, isn’t the human soul absurd?

sure you're thick-headed enbar, I didn't express a vote for the review that I don't consider bad at all but (let it be clear for me) dull. I would have given it a three just like the puni but what would change? do you need a grade like in school? would anything have changed if I had given that three? I read and appreciated Fidia's review just as I found this one soft and I don't see why I shouldn't express my opinion about it. This is such a complex film that it deserves not two but four or five reviews, which will receive my praise and admiration if I like them, regardless of whether there were another twelve. Relax, this is debaser, not the parish of the oratory.

The freedom to write belongs to both the reviewer and the commentator. It is not said that a review that does not meet the favor of the commenter must be welcomed with the "elasticity" you mention to forcibly make it agreeable. It is also not said that a review must, to be valid, encapsulate in few or many lines the essential summary of the work. Especially since that "essential summary" has not been seen encapsulated by other users, including the polite chosen one and the impetuous hetzer. Let me reiterate.

But in England, there was a blues boom with Mike Vernon of Decca producing a slew of local bands. Tony McPhee was even scandalized when he saw the "not very purist" accompaniment that Mayall's group provided for John Lee Hooker during his first tour on English soil. He himself would later replace Mayall as Hooker's accompanist and then deal the final blow by shifting to rock blues.

And speaking of discussing the blues, one should wonder why blues rock became so popular in England. The fact is that many American bluesmen were touring there in the mid-60s, performing concerts without bringing accompanying musicians, who were replaced by local bands. This was the case, for example, of the Groundhogs, featuring that great guitarist Tony McPhee, who supported John Lee Hooker. But then the phenomenon of English blues deflated to make way for harder rock sounds, as well represented by the cover of "Blues Obituary," where the three Groundhogs, dressed as undertakers, carry a coffin that holds the spirit of the blues. Thus, a lot of bands emerged that played hard with blues undertones, like Black Cat Bones or Leaf Hound.

You should ask yourself why you see conflict everywhere; I was discussing and I really don't feel like making a fuss, especially for the past few weeks, and any reference to fuss is not coincidental.

The fact is that you are, as usual, soft and inconsistent like stracchino, enbar. I am in favor not of duplicates but of double duplicates, when, however, they say something truly interesting compared to what has already been said. In this case, my freedom to express a judgment has manifested itself in noting that this review seems to me like a presentation trailer for a film that doesn't need any introductions, given that you highlight its already widely recognized quality. Period.
