Full Metal Jacket
- One of Stanley Kubrick 's best movies, Full Metal Jacket remains a classic of the war genre with career-best performances from Ermey and Vincent D'Onofrio. While the movie peaks with its first half at boot camp as its Vietnam-set second act fails to reach the same heights, it remains an all-timer and the best movie of 1987.
