    holy mother of god. 

    Kubrick man, wtf. 

    I’m not able to really understand the symbolism here, if any, I don’t have the mental prestige to analyze this 

    How incredibly terrifying for being so simple. The suspense and the music and the psychological effects are astoundingly good. Subliminal horror at its best. I’ve never been so uncomfortable. 

    Kubrick cooked up an absolute nightmare in a wonderful film. I have been fortunate enough to watch them in order of least to most…

    When people told me that Full Metal Jacket was the most normal Kubrick film, I was doubtful. 

    I was also wrong. I’ve never had a movie be so unnerving and unsettling. It’ll make you uncomfortable in ways you didn’t know you could be uncomfortable. 

    Some of the weirdest imagery in my experience. 

    This might be my first Nicholson film and he’s fucking terrifying in this. Similarly maniacal to Phoenix Joker. Fantastic performances by every character 

    Terrific.
