    I would have to say that Full Metal Jacket is my favorite. I think that Stanley Kubrick did a much better job with this one movie than the two that Oliver Stone offered (Platoon and Born on the Fourth of July).

    Please note that this movie is NOT for the easily offended. R. Lee Ermey's lines could make a sailor blush.
