    had to be made by some other intelligent being, a hit to man’s ego at being the greatest and most intelligent. Later on in the film, when the astronauts are replacing the “faulty” part reported by HAL, all the viewer hears is heavy breathing from inside the suit. This heavy breathing creates an image of man being the only thing left on the planet; everything else has been used up and the land is barren. 2001: A Space Odyssey is also an instance where Kubrick uses silence as an effective…

    FILM ANALYSIS: FULL METAL JACKET War is a tragic, yet important, piece of history that people must be aware of. Having several documentations and recreations of these wars into films should give a much wider audience of different generations the privilege to learn about the pain and struggles that people went through. Based on the opening sequence of Full Metal Jacket (1987), I feel that the message Stanley Kubrick successfully attempts to display to the audience is that war affects people…

    For instance, composites, although more prominent and researched than ever, don’t have as many reliable testing methods as other materials, such as metals. This makes it difficult to do proper safety checks on composite airplane components. Damage of composites is also not observable by the naked eye and is easily missed.

    Full metal jacket is the best anti-war movie I have ever seen. As soon as the movie started, it depicted the real struggle of being in marines. I was shocked how recruits were verbally and physically abused believed to be as a part of preparation of getting into marine as a rough and tough.

The scene in which all recruits…
